This program is designed to enhance your understanding of Anti-Microbial Resistance (AMR), a critical global health threat. It explores potential knowledge gaps in AMR research, particularly in the context of conflict and war, which has historically been linked to the spread of infectious diseases and multi-drug resistant bacteria. The Middle East, with its history of conflicts, provides a crucial regional context for collecting vital data on AMR, which can inform global strategies. Accepted fellows will first complete a mandatory online course to build foundational knowledge before engaging in the fellowship program. The program aims to address the current scarcity of evidence-based recommendations for AMR by fostering research and data collection from diverse regions, offering a rich case example for global learning.
