FAO, UNEP, WHO and WOAH welcome agreement at the UN General Assembly meeting, including a target to reduce human deaths from AMR by 10% by 2030.

This bold commitment includes a $100 million fund to drive R&D in antibiotics, diagnostics, and innovative treatments. With AMR threatening millions of lives and the effectiveness of life-saving medicines, this pledge sets ambitious goals to protect public health on a global scale.

By 2030, the initiative aims for 60% of countries to have implemented national AMR action plans, strengthening healthcare infrastructure, surveillance, and public awareness. This collaborative approach brings governments, the private sector, and communities together to curb the rise of drug-resistant infections and safeguard the future of healthcare worldwide.
 AMR is a critical challenge to both environmental and human health, targeted by the LIFE Pharma Detox project.
