Summary
It is known that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can be transmitted to people from animals and the environment. Thus, a holistic 'One Health' approach involving medical, veterinary and environmental specialists is needed to tackle this global threat to public health. In line with this concept, the 3rd International Conference on One Health Antimicrobial Resistance (ICOHAR) will bring to Copenhagen approximately 150 delegates from all over the world, including scientists and professionals from all relevant sectors and disciplines. This scientific event will allow the participants to share knowledge and tools for reducing the burden of AMR, creating a long-lasting platform for dialogue and concerted action among scientists, professionals and policy makers working with AMR.
