Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses severe societal consequences, including declining health outcomes, prolonged hospital stays, reduced protection for medical procedures, increased healthcare expenditure, and heightened mortality. Moreover, AMR undermines global food security by harming farm animal health and crop yields. Despite its transboundary nature, concerted global efforts to combat AMR have been limited.
Steering Against Superbugs explores strategies to reduce barriers and foster coordination in addressing AMR. This volume features expert contributions that provide specific and original insights into global governance of AMR and potential solutions. The experts emphasize the importance of pursuing local-level implementation of key policies, equitable recognition of solutions across sectors within countries, and across the Global North and South.
The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the devastating consequences of failing to effectively counter global health threats. AMR is widely recognized as one of the most severe long-term threats to human, animal, and environmental health. There is growing momentum for global political action in response to novel and emerging disease threats, and Steering Against Superbugs contributes valuable research to inform ongoing and future debates on this critical issue.
