The HGPI Special Seminar will bring together guests to discuss the connections between Universal Health Coverage, Global Health Security, and Antimicrobial Resistance. Global perspectives on their interconnectedness, including the inclusion of measures for AMR in international instruments for pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response currently under negotiation, will be discussed. Examples from Asia and Europe on addressing AMR and other global health issues using national health systems will then be introduced. The seminar aims to promote the importance of linking UHC, GHS, and AMR together in order to strengthen public health capacities and systems.
This webinar will be organized by Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI), AMR Alliance Japan, and the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF).
