Grassroots advocacy: Strengthening public health literacy via school-based interventions. This figure depicts the "Outreach" vertical of the World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week (WAAW) 2024 Institutional Action Plan, targeting local government school students. By simplifying the science of microbes and the risks of antimicrobial misuse, these sessions aimed to create "AMR Awareness Ambassadors" within the community. This early-life intervention was a strategic component of the National Action Plan-Antimicrobial Resistance (NAP-AMR), designed to foster a culture of rational antibiotic use and hand hygiene that extends from the classroom to the household.
