Antimicrobial resistance (commonly known as AMR) is one of the greatest global threats to public and animal health, as well as to food production. AMR is a typical example of a ‘One Health’ problem, where resistant microorganisms or resistance genes are transmitted between humans, animals and plants, often via the environment. The Nordic Ministers for - Health and Social affairs (MR-S), - Environment and Climate (MR-MK), and - Fisheries, Aquaculture, Agriculture, Food and Forestry (MR-FJLS) are now calling for a strengthened Nordic cooperation on Antimicrobial Resistance.
