Abstract
An effective, sustainable response to AMR requires a “whole-of-society”
approach, in which young people can play a crucial role now and in the future.
Youth can help to increase awareness and change behaviour in society and to
advocate for action on AMR in political and policy fora. Young people should
have a seat at the table in shaping responses to global threats such as AMR.
The ideas, perspectives and skills of youth must be harnessed to advance global,
regional, national and subnational AMR plans and interventions. Meaningful
engagement of youth should be a priority for the United Nations General
Assembly High-level Meeting on AMR in 2024 and beyond.
