This letter highlights the impact of environmental drivers on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) and highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to address this global health threat. Key factors, such as agricultural practices, wastewater treatment, and pollution, contribute to the development and spread of resistant pathogens. Utilizing the One Health approach, the paper emphasizes the importance of promoting responsible antimicrobial use, strengthening public health systems, investing in innovative research, and raising public awareness. By understanding and addressing these environmental drivers, we can work toward safeguarding global health and ensuring a sustainable future.
