🌍 As World AMR Awareness Week 2025 concludes, GARDP’s work of developing new antibiotics, repurposing existing ones and ensuring access for all continues.

Act Now: Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future.

As #USAAW25 draws to a close, we at GARDP reaffirm that tackling #AntimicrobialResistance requires all of us joining forces. The health of people, animals and our shared environment is interconnected 🧬🌍

Let’s keep the momentum going beyond the week. #WAAW2025 #CDC

Proud to support the 7-7-7 Campaign by the Health Diplomacy Alliance for World AMR Awareness Week!

AMR needs coordinated action and this campaign unites voices across sectors to boost global awareness and engagement. Together, we can act now to protect our present and secure our future!

#WAAW2025
#AMR could cause 39M deaths by 2050 without urgent action. We need stronger investment in vaccines, diagnostics, treatments, and local manufacturing—plus cross-sector innovation, to stay ahead of resistance and ensure equitable access.

💥 We’re at a critical tipping point. AMR deaths could rise 70% by 2050.

On the last day of #WAAW2025, GARDP is flipping the R&D model and as Dr Manica notes in Mediaplanet, we need a shift in how we tackle & talk about antimicrobial resistance.

💥 Fewer than 3,000 scientists worldwide are working on antibiotic discovery, and progress is slowing.

We need bold action to develop new antibiotics that are both innovative and accessible to everyone, everywhere.

That’s what drives GARDP’s DER programme.

This is BIG.

November 22, 2025 at 3:59 PM
💡 #REVIVE is one of the most comprehensive platforms in antimicrobial R&D, bringing together resources like Antimicrobial Viewpoints, webinars, conferences and AntibioticDB to support researchers worldwide.

For early-career scientists, bridging this #AMR knowledge gap is BIG. 💊

#WAAW2025
November 22, 2025 at 12:59 PM
💡 AMR research faces a critical knowledge gap, fewer scientists entering the field and key lessons from antimicrobial R&D at risk of being lost.

Through REVIVE, GARDP is connecting researchers worldwide to bridge that gap and accelerate innovation.

📊 2025 Milestone from our Access programme

• New research: in 8 low- and middle-income countries, appropriate antibiotics were available on average in just 6.9% of cases
• WHO released new operational guidance, developed with GARDP as part of the SECURE initiative

#WAAW2025
November 21, 2025 at 4:00 PM
In many low- and middle-income countries, fewer than 1 in 15 people with multidrug-resistant infections receive the treatment they need.

🤝 GARDP is working with partners to change that.

💊 THIS IS BIG.
