JPIAMR is an international collaborative platform engaging 29 nations and the European Commission to curb antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
JPIAMR coordinates national public investments and funds for transnational research with the overarching goal to curb antimicrobial resistance (AMR) on a global scale. In a broad range of activities interlinked with the six priority areas of the shared JPIAMR Strategic Research and Innovations Agenda, SRIA, JPIAMR is seeking and supporting solutions to decrease the transmission of resistant bacteria. This is done in close collaboration with the 29 member countries and support from the European Commission. JPIAMR is one of the few global collaborative research funding platforms with a One Health approach.
Impact – investments in AMR research
JPIAMR coordinates jointly funded research project and network calls on a yearly basis in collaboration with member countries including deveolping aid agencies to support researchers in low- and middle-income countries. The UN, G7, G20 and the EU recognises JPIAMR as a key initiative to support and enable global collaboration and coordination of AMR research investments.
