Hosted April 2018 by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the UK Science & Innovation Network, and the Wellcome Trust, experts met at the International Environmental AMR Forum to outline the current knowledge of how resistant microbes and antimicrobials from multiple sources—human and animal waste, antimicrobial manufacturing, and the use of antimicrobials as pesticides — contribute to the presence of resistant microbes in the environment, the potential impact of the affected environment on human health, and potential next steps to address the risks posed. Two corresponding reports were released in December 2018 providing an overview of the current evidence base and ongoing knowledge gaps. See the
