The European Union has officially launched the Partnership on One Health Antimicrobial Resistance (OHAMR), a 10-year initiative with a budget of €253 million, co-funded with €75 million by Horizon Europe. Aimed at combating the global health issue of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which accounts for over 35,000 deaths annually in the EU, the programme will provide innovative solutions by uniting 53 organizations across 30 countries.

Startups, Research and Innovation Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva (pictured) said:“Europe is ready to lead in the global fight against antimicrobial resistance. This partnership embodies our commitment to step up, innovate, and protect the foundations of modern medicine.”

Coordinated by the Swedish Research Council, OHAMR emphasises the One Health approach to reducing antimicrobial use and resistance by strengthening research capacity, fostering collaborative research, supporting policy translation, and enhancing data utilisation.
