LS-T2 - Global, regional and national perspectives on the road map ahead for a global action plan on antimicrobial resistance

Madrid

Organised by FIP AMR Commission in collaboration with GRIP and supported by Reckitt

Chair(s)

Mrs Manjiri Gharat (AMR Commission Chair, India)
Prof. Sabiha Essack (FIP AMR Commission and GRIP member, South Africa)

Introduction

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has always been a priority for FIP. Identified as a global health threat by the World Health Organization, awareness on AMR has recently gained momentum heightened by challenges posed by COVID-19, which has severely impacted progress made in previous years to combat AMR.
Following the launch of the FIP AMR Commission in September 2020, FIP has taken an inclusive approach to developing road maps on AMR across the six WHO regions. In this event, taking place at the Both FIP World Congress, FIP leadership and experts from the FIP AMR Commission (including GRIP) will present progress with AMR activities emerging from FIP member organisations. Member organisations will showcase AMR activities, initiatives and achievements mapped to the regional road maps on AMR developed in 2020 with support from FIP resources. The discussions and deliberations will culminate in the 2022 Commitment to Action to global, regional and national antimicrobial stewardship (AMS). These will then be showcased to FIP Member organisations more widely.
