What is Future Leaders Against AMR?
Future Leaders Against AMR is an international programme for students and early career professionals, designed to support their development as future leaders in the work against antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
This is achieved through various activities for participants, including relevant career guidance; exploration of the many fields relevant to the issue with an interdisciplinary One Health perspective; soft-skills training; small project management; and personal mentorship from current experts and professionals.
The programme is planned to take place virtually at the beginning of 2022, running for 10 weeks. Participant applications will open in November 2021 with priority given to those from LMIC countries and academic & professional backgrounds not typically associated with AMR.
The aim is to both educate and empower the next generation of leaders in the work against AMR.
