From words to action: ICARS’ reflections on the Political Declaration on Antimicrobial Resistance
At the 79th United Nations General Assembly in New York in September 2024, world leaders gathered to attend a High-Level Meeting (HLM) on antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Eight years after Member States adopted the first political declaration on AMR, the HLM marked the approval of a new international political declaration.
In this brief, key components of ICARS’ strategic mission and model of engagement are overlaid with commitments from the declaration, and illustrated with real-world examples of mitigation interventions from the diverse portfolio of ICARS-supported projects in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). The brief aims to demonstrate how ICARS is moving these ideas into action by bridging policy and research.
