About Investor Action on Antimicrobial Resistance
The Investor Action on Antimicrobial Resistance (IAAMR) initiative was launched on 23 January 2020, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, by the Access to Medicine Foundation (ATMF), the FAIRR Initiative, Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and the UK Government’s Department of Health and Social Care.
The first Progress Report on IAAMR sets out the importance of including AMR as a responsible investment metric and highlights what signatories have achieved in this regard since 2020, as well as opportunities going forward.
