Dr. Dishon Muloi, Molecular Epidemiologist and Veterinarian, @ILRI led a panel on Development Partners’ perspectives on financing for AMR containment. The discussion emphasised AMR as a systems issue requiring broad, multisectoral collaboration, stronger antibiotic regulation, resilient health systems, evidence-informed prescribing, and financing that reaches where it matters most including patients. #AMRGovernanceandFinancingSummit2026 #AMR #OneHealth #AMRFinancing
