As the world continues to grapple with the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), health journalists in Nigeria are taking the lead in championing initiatives to raise awareness and combat the menace.
During the 2024 World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW), marked 18 to 24 November, freelance health journalist and convener of Art for Health Naija, Rose-Camile Aneke, organised an art event tagged, ‘Microbe Madness’ as part of the Media EIS fellowship’s commitments to raise awareness about AMR.
The event held in Enugu, Enugu State, featured an art exhibition, drama performance, and animation premiere all aimed at raising awareness about AMR.
