🦠 Antimicrobial Resistance Symposium 2025
Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) in Europe – Clinical and Policy Challenges in Ukraine and Germany

As part of World Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Awareness Week 2025, this one-day international symposium will bring together clinicians, policymakers, and public health experts from Ukraine, Germany, and across Europe to address one of today’s most urgent AMR threats — carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE). 🌍

Hosted jointly by Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Robert Koch Institute, and the First Medical Union Lviv, the event aims to:
💬 Strengthen cross-border AMR partnerships and technical collaboration
🧪 Highlight CRE as a growing clinical and policy challenge in Europe
📊 Map ongoing Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) and AMR surveillance efforts in Ukraine
🤝 Facilitate dialogue on diagnostics, prevention, and treatment strategies
🧭 Define next steps toward a coordinated international AMR response

With contributions from leading institutions such as the WHO Regional Office for Europe, ECDC, and the Health Ministries of Germany and Ukraine, participants will explore how collaboration—from wards to ministries—can drive stronger, faster AMR action.
