We started by educating students about AMR. We used illustrative cartoons and storytelling to explain and illustrate AMR emphasizing how WASH is key in the fight against AMR. We also used local languages like Lusoga spoken in Iganga and Mayuge, to help them understand more easily

Thanks to the generous funding$ support from The Trinity Challenge we donated a 10,000L water tank to the school to strengthen the role of WASH in combating resistant microbes. It will provide a continuous supply of clean water highlighting handwashing as a frontline defense in IPC.

I am in South Africa for 4 weeks for the Global Health in Durban Medical Electives Program by Child Family Health International. Grateful to the ✨Thomas Hall Scholarship for making this possible. I’m learning a lot in the differences in health systems from Uganda, & in Internal Medicine & Paediatrics🤗.

The theme for WAAW (World Antimicrobial resistance Awareness Week) 2025 is a reminder to us that while we act now, we protect our present while securing the future. This is what we all ought to do if we hope for a future free from untreatable infections.
