Antimicrobial Resistance Summit Asia

This event will explore how AMR could undermine the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Asia, whose past economic success has done so much to drive global development progress. It will bring together health, food and agriculture voices to explore AMR under the ‘One Health’ rubric in which it is best understood – especially in the Asian context.

While establishing the AMR risk in Asia, the event, mirroring the London 2020 agenda, will be forward-looking and look at positive success stories and innovations, including public education campaigns, improvements in diagnostic technologies, data collaboration, and academic partnerships between regional and international universities. Country deep-dive sessions in Vietnam, China and Japan will show how countries at different income levels are mounting their AMR response.
