India AMR Innovation Hub (IAIH)

India AMR Innovation Hub, IAIH is an initiative conceptualised and anchored by C-CAMP and governed by an Advisory Council with Principal Scientific Adviser to the Govt of India as Chair. 

Launched in 2021, IAIH is a unique think tank for Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) interventions bringing together stakeholders across the AMR ecosystem, both Indian and global, and across Government, Academia, Industry, Philanthropic, and not-for-profit organizations. It envisages a convergent platform for multi-stakeholder engagement and a multi-pronged approach to key areas of AMR intervention, prioritized in alignment with the National Action Plan on AMR, the Global Action Plan for AMR, and the stakeholders’ mandate.
