Abstract
A one-day international symposium was held recently in Bengaluru, India to discuss strategies to reduce antibiotic resistance by adopting a holistic approach to human, animal and environmental health. The excessive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics in human, agriculture and animal healthcare has resulted in antimicrobial resistance (AMR). It is estimated that, if unsolved, by 2050 AMR will cause 10 million deaths per year.
