The 2025 World AMR Awareness Week (18 to 24 November) theme, “Act Now: Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future,” calls us to action and reminds us of our collective power to make a difference.
Join the Global Strategy Lab in their two-part webinar series that celebrates engagement and collaboration in action — showcasing how people across disciplines and continents are protecting our present and securing our future through community engagement, creativity, and storytelling:
- Nov 19 - From Policy to People … and Back Again, moderated by Julia Bishop
- Nov 20 - Resistance Reimagined: Where Storytelling Meets Science, moderated by Alison Humphrey
From Policy to People … and Back Again
Date: Wednesday, November 19, 2025
Time: 9:00 ET/ 14:00 GMT/ 17:00 EAT (1 hour)
Location: virtual/ zoom webinar

Lasting change starts when policy and people meet. This session explores how high-level AMR strategies can be brought to life within communities — and how insights from those communities can, in turn, shape smarter, more responsive policy. Featuring solutions from PATAM, ReAct Africa, ReAct Europe and DRASA Health Trust this discussion will highlight practical, inclusive approaches that make AMR action more grounded, relevant, and sustainable. Together, we’ll explore how bridging the gap between decision-makers and everyday experiences creates stronger, more resilient systems.
Resistance Reimagined: Where Storytelling Meets Science
Date: Thursday, November 20, 2025
Time: 8:30 ET/ 14:30 GMT/ 17:30 EAT (90 minutes)
Location: virtual/ zoom webinar

Awareness alone isn’t enough. We need connection. This session showcases how artists, designers, and storytellers are inspiring action through creative approaches that bring AMR to life. Through the Art x AMR initiative at the Global Strategy Lab and Immersive Storytelling Lab, comics, games, and immersive storytelling are transforming complex science into shared understanding and collective motivation. These creative voices remind us that art can move hearts as powerfully as data moves minds, helping people everywhere see that their choices and actions matter.
