How Everyday IPC Practices Curb AMR Spread

What is the "Silent Pandemic" threatening global health security? It's Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), and by 2050, it could kill 10 million people annually if we don’t act. But how do we fight an invisible enemy? In this session, hosted by UDUYARS (Usmanu Danfodiyo University Young Antimicrobial Resistance Stewards), we break down AMR from a multidisciplinary One Health perspective. We reveal why this is not just a medical crisis, but an environmental, agricultural, and socio-economic challenge requiring united action. Crucially, this session answers the number one question asked by young leaders: "What is my everyday role in AMR mitigation?" The answer lies in combining youthful innovation with the consistent application of everyday IPC (Infection Prevention and Control) practices. If you are a student, young professional, researcher, or grassroots advocate looking to shift from awareness to sustainable action, this guide is designed for you. Learn how simple, daily IPC measures, from proper hand hygiene to responsible antibiotic use, can effectively curb the spread of resistant superbugs. 📌 KEY TOPICS COVERED: • Introduction to AMR: Decoding the Silent Pandemic • The One Health Framework: Connecting Human, Animal, and Environmental Health • Multidisciplinary Perspective: Why Every Major Matters in the AMR Fight • Everyday IPC practices: Actionable Steps Anyone Can Take to Curb Spread • The Role of Youth: Shifting from Advocacy to Grassroots Stewardship in Nigeria ABOUT UDUYARS: UDUYARS is a youth-led initiative based in Sokoto, Nigeria, confronting antimicrobial resistance through education, community engagement, and capacity building.
