On this occasion, as well as to mark European Antibiotic Awareness Day<\/a>, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control<\/a> (ECDC) is organising a launch event at the Brussels Press Club. The event will follow the Commission\u2019s midday briefing where Commissioner Dalli and Commissioner Geoghegan-Quinn will present the new AMR strategy.<\/p>\n

The strategy, which comes ten years after the adoption of the 2001 Community Strategy against AMR<\/a>, aims at addressing all sources of AMR and their potential impacts; reference will be made to public health, food safety, consumer safety, environment, animal health and welfare as well as non-therapeutic use of antimicrobial substances.<\/p>\n

Speakers at the ECDC launch event will include Paola Testori Coggi, Director General of DG Sanco, Marc Sprenger, Director of ECDC, Robert-Jan Smits, Director General of DG Research and Innovation, as well as representatives of the on-going Polish Presidency and incoming Danish Presidency.<\/p>\n
