The Global AMR Diary

The Human Face of Antimicrobial Resistance

Collective storytelling to shift perspectives and shape policy.

This initiative aims to magnify awareness and deepen the understanding of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Behind every statistic is a person — these are the real stories of patients, families, and advocates affected by drug-resistant infections around the world.

What is AMR?

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites evolve to resist the drugs designed to kill them. It is one of the top global public health threats, making common infections harder to treat and medical procedures riskier.
