The event aims to generate a shared understanding of available tools; to discuss challenges in data sharing across tools, sectors, and scales; and to identify opportunities for more effective ways to generate, share, and use quantitative AMR data in support of local, regional, and global AMR policy.

The day will consist of a mix of talks and panel discussions with Q&As, ending with a panel on new international targets for AMR, and the implications for AMR surveillance and research. Additionally, there will be engagement opportunities including networking sessions, discussions with peers, and interactive sessions. These will provide a platform for attendees to exchange ideas, collaborate on projects, and explore innovative solutions in AMR data analysis. A full programme will be shared soon.

This event is aimed at anyone working on AMR surveillance and quantitative AMR data analysis including policymakers, clinicians, academics, data experts and those developing tools as well as methods for analysing and collecting quantitative AMR and antibiotic usage data.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided for in-person attendees.

In-person attendance is strongly encouraged to be able to participate in the event fully, but a Zoom link will be available for international attendees and those who are unable to attend in-person. All attendees must register.

We have reserved space in the programme for attendees who are developing AMR data tools to present short (5-minute) talks. You can express your interest when registering for the event. Presenters will be selected to represent the diversity of researchers at all career stages. The deadline to submit your interest has now passed.
