Today, I was privileged to share my lived experience of #AMR at the #WHA77 & talk about the work we have already achieved with the @WHO Task Force of AMR Survivors since its inaugural meeting in October 2023 Patients, carers & survivors help to demonstrate the real-world impact of one of the greatest challenges of our time. Let's do everything in our power to listen & create meaningful, people-centered solutions Thank you @DrTedros for including me to this important round table Watch the recording here: piped.video/live/YrO6lMsMbYE… #AMRsurvivors #AntimicrobialResistance

📢 Help shape future global evidence priorities. Join a virtual expert dialogue exploring priorities for AMR assessment and evidence synthesis across One Health sectors, with discussions informing future work around IPEA. 📅 29 or 30 Sept 🔗 bit.ly/4xNHT3h

Bhakti Chavan and @MSF are our #AMRChampions! She went through rounds of #AntibioticTherapy to no avail as she had drug-resistant TB until MSF stepped in with a new drug. She chose to share her story so people can know more about this threat, and that's no small feat

Do you think screening matters to #AMR? Join the @theAMRnarrative webinar, Oct 28 which will include patient voices health professionals and others to explore this topic further Register here👉amrnarrative.org/event/webin… #AntimicrobialResistance #InfectionControl #theAMRnarrative

1/3 We’re excited to announce that @DucitBlueFdn has partnered with @theAMRnarrative to implement the African AMR Voices Network, uniting lived experience and collective voices to tackle antimicrobial resistance (AMR) across Africa. #AfricanAMRVoices #AMR

Exciting news! 🌍 The AMR Narrative and @DucitBlueFdn are collaborating to implement the African AMR Voices Network uniting lived experience & collective voices to tackle #AMR across Africa 🔗 amrnarrative.org/theamrnarra… #AfricanAMRVoices #AntimicrobialResistance #theAMRnarrative

Vanessa is a real-life-story of #AMR

#AMR is not just a common cold that takes longer to resolve. It can mean: • Surgical failure • Chemotherapy failure • Higher hospital bills • Longer hospital stays • Losing a loved one @VCarterAMR is a living testimony to the devastating reality of antimicrobial resistance

@LawalOluku is our champion for this week! He was a victim of a health system that misdiagnosed him, leading him to take multiple antibiotics for what was supposed to be a UTI. Now, he is a member of the @WHO AMR Taskforce of Survivors! #AMRChampion #AMRTaskforce

Everyone who sets out on a journey deserves to arrive safely. Yet every minute, more than two people lose their lives on the world’s roads. My friend @JeanTodt and I have arrived in New York for the UN High Level Meeting on #RoadSafety with one message for world leaders: invest in safer road systems now. Lives depend on it

We totally agree More work needs to be done in the surveillance and research area

Data alone doesn't improve healthcare; better decisions do. The strongest health systems don't just collect data; they use evidence to identify risks, improve processes, and deliver safer, higher-quality care. How has data informed a key decision in your organisation? #Health

𝑪𝒂𝒏 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒏𝒇𝒍𝒖𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝑨𝑴𝑹 𝒑𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒂𝒔 𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝑯𝑰𝑽 𝒑𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒚? For decades, health communication has stumbled at a critical hurdle: making global crises feel personally urgent. We routinely ask communities to change behavior, pay attention, and trust the message. Yet, we frequently fail because our messaging is detached from their daily realities. This disconnect is strongly evident in Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). At the policy level, the language is powerful, targets are ambitious, and intentions are impeccable. But when policies ignore what communities navigate every single day, unreliable access to healthcare, lack of clean water, absence of diagnostics, the catastrophic cost of illness, and immense pressure on livelihoods, neither the message nor the response will ever stick. The HIV movement changed the world because it was driven from the ground up. Communities didn't just listen to policy; they wrote it. They demanded that high-level science translate into basic human rights: affordable medicine, dignified care, and localized support. AMR policy must undergo the same revolution. Communities are not asking for complex epidemiological targets; they are asking for the basics. They need clean water so infections don't start, affordable diagnostics so they don't have to guess which pill to buy, and reliable healthcare so they don't rely on unregulated markets. True policy impact begins with radical, honest communication that roots itself in these everyday struggles. If we want communities to protect the future of medicine, we must first address the systemic vulnerabilities of their present. It’s time to stop talking at communities about superbugs, and start fighting with them for the basic infrastructure they deserve. #AMR #PublicHealth #HealthEquity

The future of One Health leadership starts with the conversations we have today. Our Cohort 4 interns will engage leading experts in a Fireside Chat on "The Future of One Health Leadership in Africa: Are Young People Ready?" 🗓️ Today | 🕒 3:00 PM (WAT) #OneHealth #AMR

🔴⚠️ A Red Heat-Health Alert has been issued across the Midlands and southern England until 25 June. This is the highest level of alert and indicates a risk to everyone's health, not just vulnerable groups. Northern England is under an Amber alert.

We totally agree!

How far have we gone with awareness and communication on #AntimicrobialResistance? This is the first objective on the global action plan and this is our assessment. What do you think? Fair? Let us know in the comments. #Goal1 #IncreaseinAwareness #WAAW2026

The most important part of my job as a patient advocate and survivor of #AMR is to speak with other patients. In this @theamrnarrative interview, Borislava Ananieva from @eupatientsforum and I compare notes. Full interview here 👉piped.video/rUrAKOam73k?si=VEJL… #AntimicrobialResistance #theAMRnarrative

AMR Policy & Governance Program for African Youths (Cohort 4) Participants explored how digital advocacy and media engagement can strengthen AMR awareness, shape policy conversations, and drive collective action. #Athread
