Building the AMR Independent Panel: Lessons and Insights
A collaborative initiative to explore models, lessons, and frameworks to support the Independent Panel on Evidence for Action Against Antimicrobial Resistance
In September 2024, countries tasked the UN with establishing an Independent Panel on Evidence for Action Against Antimicrobial Resistance. To aid the formation of this panel, CGD has worked with a range of researchers to create a collection of papers designed to learn from existing independent panels and to incorporate the goals of AMR stakeholders.
