Antimicrobial resistance: A growing threat to global health


Position statement

Antimicrobial resistance: A growing threat to global health

Antimicrobial resistance contributes to at least 700,000 deaths globally every year. Without urgent action, millions of lives are at risk and economies will suffer.

  
The spread of superbugs: Why low- and middle-income countries must act now to tackle antimicrobial resistance


Advocacy report

The spread of superbugs: Why low- and middle-income countries must act now to tackle antimicrobial resistance

Antimicrobial resistance causes at least 700,000 deaths globally each year. We need a coordinated, cross-sectoral and multi-pronged approach to respond effectively to this threat.

  
One Health and community engagement: Two complementary approaches for tackling antimicrobial resistance


Briefing note

One Health and community engagement: Two complementary approaches for tackling antimicrobial resistance

A One Health approach and community engagement are crucial to tackling antimicrobial resistance. We carried out two studies in Bangladesh that highlight the value of community dialogues in addressing this threat to global health.

 
Community dialogue approach for addressing the drivers of antibiotic resistance in Bangladesh


Journal article

Community dialogue approach for addressing the drivers of antibiotic resistance in Bangladesh

This study explores the process of developing an embedded approach to community engagement, taking the global challenge of antibiotic resistance as an example.

  
Countering the spread of drug-resistant malaria in northern Cambodia


Project brief

Countering the spread of drug-resistant malaria in northern Cambodia

In Cambodia, partial resistance to artemisinin-based combination therapy has been confirmed in malaria parasites. To support elimination of Plasmodium falciparum and prevent further emergence of resistant mutations, strengthened malaria case management is key.
