World Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Awareness Week is scheduled for November 18–24, 2024.

2024 Theme: The theme "Educate. Advocate. Act Now." emphasizes the urgent need for global education, advocacy, and action to combat AMR.

Global Health Threat: AMR poses a significant threat to human and animal health, food production, and the environment, necessitating immediate and coordinated efforts.

The campaign urges stakeholders to educate communities about AMR, advocate for strong commitments, and implement concrete measures to address this pressing issue.

The 2024 United Nations General Assembly High-level Meeting on AMR and the fourth Global High-Level Ministerial Conference on AMR present critical opportunities for political and financial commitments to tackle AMR.
