Educational Resources on AMR for Veterinery Students
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a growing global health crisis that is closely interconnected with human, animal, and environmental health. This webpage brings together free educational resources to spark meaningful conversations about AMR with veterinary students and dairy farming communities.
Whether you are planning to organize an interactive workshop or finding ways to talk about AMR with farmers, find free-to-download activities, posters, comics, and infographics to get right into your AMR engagement activities.
Everything here is open source - feel free to use, share, and adapt as needed!
If you do, we would love to hear from you. Drop us a line at sasindia2018@gmail.com—your feedback helps us keep the momentum going!
The resources were originally developed as part of the project, “Resisting AMR: One farm at a Time”, Developed as part of a project in collaboration with CSIR-Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTECH) and Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (GADVASU), supported by The Trinity Challenge Antimicrobial Resistance Youth Competition 2025.
