Note to editors Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains one of the most pressing global health threats, undermining the effectiveness of essential treatments and placing millions at risk of untreatable infections. As countries strive to strengthen their health systems and honor global commitments, the need for reliable, representative, and timely AMR data has never been greater. The WHO Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS), launched in 2015, was established to meet this demand. Since its inception, GLASS has steadily expanded to support countries in building national surveillance systems, harmonizing data collection, and generating evidence to guide action. By the end of 2024, 138 countries and three territories and areas had joined GLASS, with over 100 contributing AMR data for 2023. The GLASS 2025 report is accompanied by expanded digital content available in the GLASS dashboard, which provides global and regional summaries, country profiles based on unadjusted surveillance coverage and AMR data, and detailed information on antimicrobial use.
