In a rural area in Bahi district, young changemakers are leading the fight against #AMR! Through Roll Back AMR School Clubs, students are becoming agents of change, educating their peers and communities on the responsible use of antibiotics.

We celebrate these incredible students and the supportive guardians who stand by them. Their dedication proves that no effort is too small combating AMR!

Together, we are building a healthier future✨.
