We are dedicated to raising global awareness of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and preventing it from becoming the #1 cause of death worldwide.

Deaths associated

in 2019 alone.
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a silent pandemic that is severely under-reported and is projected to become the leading cause of death worldwide. AMR occurs when bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites mutate and no longer respond to drugs due to the overuse and misuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals, and plants.
Our foundation was created to educate the public and healthcare professionals about AMR, its causes, and strategies for reduction and elimination. Our vision is to save the world one infection at a time, promoting antibiotic stewardship and responsible treatment practices among all people.
We are committed to several initiatives to help stop the spread of Antimicrobial Resistance.
Increase awareness & education
Assist others with NGS & accurate treatments
Research & development of Next-Gen disinfectants
Develop accurate Phage Therapy protocols
Facilitate clinical trials for Phage Therapy
Accurate diagnostics lead to accurate treatment, helping to save lives and reduce antibiotic resistance. Next Generation DNA Sequencing (NGS) is the key to properly diagnosing and treating infections, but most people don’t even know about it. Bacteria Without Borders is here to change that.
