A clear mandate gives the committee legitimacy,
enabling enforcement, policy creation, and inter-agency coordination.

Building consensus across health workers, administrative leaders, and


stakeholders reduces resistance and builds commitment.

AMR is a multisectoral problem—coordinated leadership ensures


sustained, wide-reaching impact.

Empowered and informed staff are more likely to implement AMS


activities with confidence and competence.

Embedding AMS in routine planning and budgeting ensures continuity


beyond leadership transitions.
