| 3 | 2 | Steven (eSHIFT) Uggowitzer | The emerging threat of antimicrobial resistance necessitates a coordinated response from the global community. If left unaddressed, resistant pathogens could account for up to 10 million deaths annually and US $100 trillion in global GDP loss by 2050 (amr-review.org). Through the UN Tripartite Alliance for One Health, and initiatives such as the UK Government's Fleming Fund and Global AMR Innovation Fund (GAMRIF), the stage has been set for multi-sectoral and cross-cutting collaboration to address this need. The eSHIFT Partner Network (eSHIFT) has been working alongside the Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND) to develop an AMR Surveillance Platform to strengthen countries' ability to capture high-quality AMR data. |

| 7 | There is great strength in reusing and integrating solutions within single well engineered environments. The AoS Health Platform consists of hardware infrastructure (cloud or dedicated), software, configuration, customization and localization of digital health equipment, telecommunications infrastructure and software tools to build sustainable reference implementations of complete systems architectures to address one or more public health needs. |

| 8 | For AoS Health AMR, the core AoS Health Platform is enhanced with an orchestrated selection of software, including tools such as DHIS2 and Open Interop, and AMR-specific software components we have engineered based on project needs, guidance from the World Health Organization (WHO), Fleming Fund actors, AMR research and National Action Plans. |
