Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is estimated to contribute to over 700,000 deaths globally each year — a figure that could rise to 10 million by 2050. Tackling AMR requires a ‘One Health’ approach, in which stakeholders across sectors collaborate to ensure the appropriate use of antimicrobials. To date, effective and sustainable community engagement (CE) interventions that address the contextual drivers of AMR through a One Health approach have not been evaluated and scaled up. To close this research gap and inform policy making, we're working with project partners to implement and evaluate an innovative community-led CE intervention in Bangladesh and Nepal.
