Accelerating global action against antimicrobial resistance for a healthier, safer, and more equitable future.

AMR Policy Accelerator Impact Report 2024

Take a look at our year in review!

Our Approach 

The AMR Policy Accelerator works closely with national governments, international agencies, and civil society organizations to understand and respond to their AMR policy concerns and needs. 

Our innovative model provides a comprehensive offering: rigorous policy research, customized advisory services, capacity building, and an integrated approach to knowledge mobilization. Leveraging this model, the Accelerator delivers context-specific support for the development, or renewal, of AMR National Action Plans and One Health-informed policy and technical briefs, alongside offering best practice guidance and methodological support for specific AMR-related policy questions. 

Policy Research

Advisory Services

Capacity Building

Designing a scientific panel on AMR

A well-designed scientific panel with a clear mandate could play a vital role in global AMR governance by providing evidence-informed recommendations to promote equitable AMR interventions. 

Developing Gender-responsive National Action Plans 

While gender plays an important role in a person’s risk of exposure and vulnerability to drug-resistant infections, few national action plans (NAPs) on AMR include gender considerations.

Unifying goals to rally political support on AMR

Unifying goals – such as the 2° target of the Paris Climate Accord – can spur action by setting the agenda, defining success, and uniting collective efforts.
