The Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Malta, in collaboration with the WHO Global Leaders Group on Antimicrobial Resistance, is delighted to extend an invitation to an engaging symposium focused on raising awareness about Antimicrobial Resistance. This hybrid educational event bearing the title ‘Political advocacy and closing the knowledge gaps to address antimicrobial resistance‘ seeks to shed light on the pressing issue of Antimicrobial Resistance and its profound impact on public health.

The primary goal of this symposium is to enlighten patients and the public regarding antibiotic misuse and the critical need for effective infection prevention measures. The symposium will feature insights from members of the AMR Patient Group who will share their personal experiences in dealing with resistant bacteria. Their narratives will serve to advocate for concrete actions to combat this escalating public health threat.

This Antimicrobial Resistance Symposium is going to be held on Wednesday 22nd November 2023 from 9am till 2pm CET (Malta Time). It is going to be a hybrid event – in-person at the South Auditorium, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Malta, and virtual.
