The Antimicrobial Resistance Knowledge Hub on The Global Health Network supports stronger coordination, knowledge sharing, and faster progress in AMR research across the globe.
To disseminate our YAAR! project outputs, the team gathered and shared our study profile, including the materials, including young people’s content, learning framework, and successful youth working group model. We hope that with the diversified audience of The Global Health Network and AMR Hub, our case study will help to set an example of how powerful young people can become when they are equipped with knowledge, skills, passion, and trust.
