The World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW) is a global campaign to raise awareness on AMR, and is celebrated from 18-24 November every year. The Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) marks this week each year through a global campaign. In its 10th year, the theme of CSE’s initiative is ‘Global South Action on AMR’, as part of which we will be engaging with experts and stakeholders to spread awareness about practices, key issues and solutions through webinars, videos, articles, opinion polls, online and social media campaigns. For about a decade and a half, CSE's Sustainable Food Systems team has been working towards an effective global response on antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly from the perspective of the global South. It is clear that the realities, challenges and possibilities of the Global South are different. There is a strong need to reflect the priorities and challenges of the Global South, so that the global response to AMR crisis is truly global, effective and sustainable. Our work on AMR can be seen here. The global theme for WAAW 2025 is “Act Now: Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future.”
