Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in various disease causing pathogens has become a major challenge in combating communicable diseases. Resistance in microorganisms causing malaria, TB and HIV/AIDS can hinder the achievement of Millennium Development Goal 6 (MDG6). Recognizing the importance of antimicrobial resistance, the Health Ministers of the Member States of WHO South-East Asia Region gave a call in 2011 for concerted efforts to prevent and contain AMR through the Jaipur Declaration on AMR. This report summarizes the progress made in implementation of the Jaipur Declaration on AMCitation
