Antibiotic resistance: political issues

The joint symposium between Institut Pasteur, CEVIPOF and the Sciences Po Health Chair will focus on the major challenges of antibiotic resistance and antibiotic stewardship as a common good.

The event will be organized around three round tables exploring the following questions: how a health problem becomes a complex political issue; what incentives are needed to foster responsible production, innovation and consumption of antibiotics; and finally, what actions and coalitions of actors are required to implement and evaluate effective policies.

We invite you to take part in this interdisciplinary event, combining the expertise of researchers in political science and those specializing in life and health sciences, which promises to bring new cross-disciplinary perspectives to bear on these crucial issues.
