Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global health threat, causing an estimated 1.27 million deaths globally each year. Newborns in low-income and fragile settings are particularly vulnerable to the dangers posed by AMR. In response, Jhpiego is committed to combating this growing threat through comprehensive programs designed to train health workers and strengthen health systems. At this year's World Health Assembly, Jhpiego will be in Geneva sharing insights, learning from others, and hosting a discussion about this multifaceted crisis. Join us on May 28 to learn more about the fight against AMR to ensure happy, healthy lives for newborns and their families.

Anti-Microbial Resistance; A silent pandemic..... It's time to action to combat AMR otherwise nobody would be healthy in coming decades. One world one approach. #OneWorld #OneHealth #OneApproach #IHR #GHSA #EGHS #GlobalHealth #AMR #SilentPandemic #CalltoAction #CountDownBegins

The global health threat of Anti-microbial Resistance (AMR) is well documented. AMR can impact anyone, at any time, in any country. That is why collaboration to tackle AMR is so important. I recently participated in a policy roundtable with G7 government representatives and policy experts to talk about the importance of multi-stakeholder engagement and efforts underway at the national level--including pull incentives--to support antimicrobial development. Insights from the roundtable have now been published. Thank you to Global Coalition on Aging for convening this important dialogue.  https://lnkd.in/eEsSv8Th #AMR #PFEColleague

World Health Day, observed annually on April 7th, highlights the significance of global health and encourages action to address health challenges. It serves as a platform to raise awareness about various health issues and advocate for accessible healthcare for all. In Pakistan, health challenges persist, including inadequate infrastructure, limited access to healthcare services, high maternal and child mortality rates, infectious diseases like tuberculosis and hepatitis, and a growing burden of non-communicable diseases. World Health Day reminds us of the urgent need to prioritize health equity, strengthen healthcare systems, and promote preventive measures to improve the well-being of individuals and communities worldwide. #worldhealthday #7april #health

The Lancet July 2024 issue sheds the light on rare diseases through enhancing the role of primary care in early detection and management. Several recommendations and future directions including the use of digital health have been proposed to be adopted to achieve better health outcomes in rare diseases. #health #healthpolicy #rarediseases

The Lancet: “#Health at a Crossroads. Future of the European Union #EU Hangs in the Balance” “This EU strategic agenda for 2024–29 overlooks crucial issues such as rising #HealthInequity, the surge in non-communicable diseases #NCDs —the leading cause of death in the EU—exacerbated by a rapidly #aging population, increasing prevalence of #mentalhealth conditions, and the alarming shortage of #HealthCareWorkers.” https://lnkd.in/e49fzaee

The cards are on the table. The new European Parliament has been chosen. The EU strategic priorities 2024-2029 are out. "This is a defining moment for #publichealth in the EU. The decisions made by this newly elected Parliament will either propel us towards a healthier, more united Europe or set us back, jeopardising the wellbeing of millions. The stakes could not be higher. Health is at a crossroads, and every eligible EU citizen must take responsibility for the future of their continent by actively participating in elections. A 51% voter turnout is discouraging and highlights the need for greater civic engagement. In democratic societies, voting is both a right and a responsibility. Exercising this right with a sense of pride and proactive commitment, not complacency, ensures that our voices are heard and shapes a healthier, more equitable future for all".

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer are responsible for over 71% of global deaths. How can we address this global health crisis? By implementing effective health policies that target the key risk factors such as unhealthy diets, tobacco use, and physical inactivity. In this video, we explore how robust health policies can: ✅️ Promote healthier environments and reduce risk factors. ✅️ Ensure access to preventative healthcare. ✅️ Raise public awareness through national and global health campaigns. Combatting NCDs requires global cooperation, but it starts with strong, localized health policies. Watch the video to learn more about the impact of health policies in addressing NCDs. #GlobalHealth #NCDs #HealthPolicy #PublicHealth #HealthcareLeadership #SDWConsultingCo #HealthEquity #PolicyDevelopment

Today, November 3, is One Health Day—a global campaign highlighting the need for collaboration to address health challenges at the human-animal-environment interface. The One Health approach is essential for tackling issues like antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and improving health outcomes for all.
