International advocacy statements
Antimicrobial resistance
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) — the threat of bacteria and other microbes becoming resistant to treatment by antibiotics and other lifesaving drugs — is a serious concern and public health threat.
Substandard and falsified medicines
Substandard and falsified medicines pose a grave global health threat causing more than a million patient deaths a year, reducing the effectiveness of medical treatment, contributing to drug resistant infections, depleting national health resources and posing a threat to domestic security.
