In May 2015, the sixty-eighth World Health Association had approved a global action plan to address the agreed problem of antibiotic and other antimicrobial resistance.

One of the primary purposes of the plan is to increase awareness of the problem of antibacterial resistance and improve its understanding through contact activities, education and effective training.

The Ministry of Health in the Kingdom of Bahrain calls on all sectors to increase awareness, educate and encourage caution in the use of antimicrobials and strengthen preventive measures to counter antimicrobic resistance, and work for hand in hand.
