At the Seventy-ninth World Health Assembly, Member States adopted the updated Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance (GAP-AMR) 2026–2036. Developed through collaboration between WHO, FAO, UNEP, and WOAH, the plan strengthens the global response to antimicrobial resistance using a One Health approach that connects human, animal, plant, food, and environmental health.

The updated strategy emphasizes prevention measures such as infection control, sanitation, vaccination, biosecurity, and responsible antimicrobial use. It also calls for stronger surveillance, innovation, sustainable food systems, financing, accountability, and international cooperation.

On the 24th of May The World Health Assembly adopted a resolution to strengthen pharmacovigilance systems worldwide, emphasizing the importance of monitoring the safety of medicines, vaccines, and health technologies. Countries committed to improving regulatory systems, workforce capacity, safety surveillance, and the use of digital tools and real-world data.

On the 22th on May The World Health Assembly adopted a landmark resolution promoting precision medicine as part of equitable and sustainable healthcare systems. Precision medicine uses genomic, molecular, and clinical data to improve prevention, diagnosis, and treatment across many diseases, including cancer, rare diseases, infectious diseases, and mental health conditions.

Also several major health resolutions were adopted:

• The first-ever resolution on stroke, promoting prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and stronger health systems.

• A resolution to modernize pharmacovigilance systems for safer medicines and vaccines using digital tools and AI.

• A global strategy for integrated emergency, critical, and operative care to strengthen health services worldwide.

• A resolution expanding access to diagnostic imaging through teleradiology.

• A landmark resolution on precision medicine to promote personalized and equitable healthcare while addressing gaps in access and genomic representation.

On the 21st on May countries supported creating a new post-2030 strategy to fight tuberculosis (TB), aiming to align TB efforts with universal health coverage and global health security. Although TB treatment has saved millions of lives and service access has improved, TB remains a leading infectious killer due to underfunding, inequality, conflict, and pandemic disruptions.
