Young people are key allies in the fight against Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). Engaging them early builds awareness, fosters responsible health behaviours, and empowers them to become informed advocates for change. This collection of interactive lessons and hands-on activities is designed to introduce young minds and community learners to the science and urgency of AMR. From storytelling and roleplay to science games and creative arts, these resources make AMR education accessible, fun, and action-oriented.
Whether you're a teacher, facilitator, parent, or student—dive into these activities to spark curiosity and inspire everyday AMR superheroes.
