Host country: Nigeria Target audience: Government representatives, doctors, pharmacists, nurses, laboratory scientists, public-health professionals, veterinarians, researchers, policymakers and One Health stakeholders. Why antimicrobial resistance matters Antimicrobial resistance occurs when microorganisms develop the ability to withstand medicines that were previously effective against them. Addressing AMR requires coordinated action across human health, animal health, agriculture and environmental sectors.
