In 2022, the Foundation contributed to ‘Antimicrobial Resistance: The Silent Pandemic’, a report launched by Citi Global Perspectives & Solutions (Citi GPS). As part of continued engagement around the report, and to highlight the interventions required by different stakeholders to address AMR, Citi GPS is hosting a series of webinars. These webinars will serve as a platform for report contributors to offer valuable insights on this urgent topic.

Fatema and Bram will be discussing the Foundation’s work on AMR, including how investors can use the 2021 AMR Benchmark to support their engagements with companies across the pharmaceutical industry.

Why AMR is a topic that responsible investors should consider.
The critical path to incentivising pharmaceutical companies to do more to innovate for novel antimicrobials.
How responsible manufacturing of antimicrobials can prevent AMR.
Why improving access to medicine can play a role in addressing AMR.
Understanding what constitutes good stewardship of antimicrobials.
