๐ Antimicrobial Resistance
๐Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is when germs change and medicines like antibiotics stop working. This makes infections like pneumonia, TB, and sepsis harder and sometimes impossible to treat.
๐Globally, AMR was directly linked to 1.27 million deaths in 2019, and 1 in 6 infections is already resistant to available antibiotics in 2025.
โ ๏ธThis is a serious threat to our health because AMR puts many of the gains of modern medicine at risk. It makes infections harder to treat and makes other medical procedures and treatments โ such as surgery, caesarean sections and cancer chemotherapy much riskier.
What can you do?
โ Only take antibiotics prescribed by a doctor.
โ Never share or use leftover antibiotics.
โ Always finish the full course, even if you feel better.
โ Prevent infections by washing hands regularly.
โจlet's protect our medicines for the future!

โขLeads to injuries, unwanted pregnancies, induced abortions, STIs (including HIV), and maternal health complications.
โข Increases risks of depression, PTSD, anxiety, sleep disorders, and suicide.
โข Contributes to chronic conditions and affects health and development, perpetuating intergenerational cycles of violence.

Today, our SCORA AA team successfully completed the second phase of our Pad Distribution Project at the One-Stop Center, Gandhi Memorial Hospital.
We delivered the collected sanitary pads, purchased pad packs, and donated clothes to support survivors of sexual violence who receive psychological, medical, and legal services at the center.
The One-Stop Center plays a vital role in caring for girls and boys affected by sexual abuse, and they are continuously in need of pads, clothes, and detergents. By sharing this, we aim to raise awareness and encourage others to support their essential work.
This activity is proudly part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed, all student donors, and Dr. Ismail, the coordinator of the One-Stop Center at Gandhi branch, for welcoming us and guiding the visit.
Together, we continue to advocate, support, and stand for SRHR and GBV prevention.
