The Commission recognises that antimicrobial resistance is a global health challenge requiring coordinated action across human, animal, plant and environmental health. Within this broader One Health context, the Commission’s focus is on the healthcare system, where we work to improve the safe and appropriate use of antimicrobials, reduce patient harm and prevent and contain antimicrobial resistance in Australia. Additional information and resources on antimicrobial use and resistance and stewardship are available on the Commission’s website.

Download the resources today and join the collective effort to help protect antimicrobials for future generations.
