AMR Alliance Japan was also involved in the creation of the pages in the guidebook related to AMR.
*Available only in Japanese.
During his first policy speech of FY2022, Mayor Kiyomoto Hideyasu stated, “We must raise the alarm about antimicrobial resistance, which spreads through the improper use of antimicrobials and could cause infectious diseases to become untreatable. I declare Himeji City a ‘City Promoting Countermeasures against AMR.’ We will work to spread the word about this problem among our citizens and medical professionals.” In February 2022, the “Declaration of Himeji City as a City Promoting Countermeasures against AMR” was released. The declaration can be found here.
