Tracing epistemic injustice in global antimicrobial resistance research

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This commentary explores whether there is epistemic injustice in global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) research - who sets priorities, who produces knowledge, and which types of knowledge are valued. We argue that epistemic injustice may have created blind spots in policy. Addressing this requires a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
