Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest health challenges of our time.

It threatens us all, however the most vulnerable are at the most risk.

If we don't prioritise action now, we will see a steady increase in the global death toll.

This is a very important report! It shows that plans for access to promising new antimicrobials by LMICs with large populations affected by AMR are largely lacking. It is essential that progress on this is tracked and that words turn into action.

AMR is a global health crisis that will affect us all.

Political events this year present a unique opportunity for the world to unite in more effective, collective action.

We're calling for an approach informed by scientific evidence, clear targets and accountability.
