Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF)
UK - Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)
The Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid programme from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). It supports high-quality research and development (R&D) around the world to reduce the threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in humans, animals, and the environment for the benefit of people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), focussing on product development (such as therapeutics, alternatives, vaccines, diagnostics and beyond). GAMRIF delivers through bilateral partnerships, global initiatives, and product development partnerships (PDPs) to establish international research partnerships with industry, academia, and governments. This approach enables it to collaborate with, and leverage additional funding from, other global donors to develop innovative One Health* solutions to tackle AMR in LMICs and increase the availability of context-specific, accessible, and affordable innovations for LMICs. (*One Health is an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimise the health of people, animals and ecosystems. It recognises that the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment (including ecosystems) are closely linked and interdependent.)
Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) - Vaccine Innovation with the Bacterial Vaccinology Network (BactiVac)
UK - Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF). GAMRIF funds research and development to fight antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where the burden of drug-resistant infection is greater. This project is delivered in partnership with the Bacterial Vaccinology Network (BactiVac) to support the development of vaccines for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in humans and animals. BactiVac is one of five networks that are supported by the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) Networks in Vaccines Research and Development which is co-funded by the UK Medical Research Council (MRC) and the UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC). The primary aim of this investment is to accelerate the development of vaccines against bacterial infections, so that antimicrobial use in humans and animals is reduced in LMICs. This investment also supports new, diverse research projects to gain preliminary data and encourage new research partnerships, and allow these collaborations to build a track record, which will allow them to obtain further funding. It is expected that some of these projects will not yield expected research results, yet the dissemination of both positive and negative research outcomes is valuable and expected. Funded projects will undertake early-stage research and development with catalyst pump-priming funding around the world to help drive the development and uptake of vaccines for AMR for the benefit of people in LMICs.
Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) - Nurturing breakthrough technologies to solve the global grand challenges of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in the Environment
UK - Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) which funds research and development to fight antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where the burden of drug-resistant infection is greater. This project is delivered in partnership with the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Platforms (C-CAMP) to nurture promising technologies that can solve the global challenges of AMR in the environment. A national and international call for applications (‘AMR Challenge’) will identify innovative solutions addressing prioritised AMR challenges in the environment for the benefit of LMICs. The Challenge will be specific for AMR in the environment with impact across the One Health* domains of human, animal and the environment. The India AMR Innovation Hub’s large stakeholder network may be leveraged to advance Challenge-funded innovations.

Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) - Global Health Security and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)
UK - Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s Global Antimicrobial Resistance Innovation Fund (GAMRIF) which funds research and development to fight antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where the burden of drug-resistant infection is greater. This partnership with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) aims to provide regulatory and policy support to GAMRIF funded activities globally by: (1) Providing early-stage regulatory advice through existing innovation accelerator; (2) Underpinning regulatory scientific research to establish the scientific framework for assuring the quality of products; and (3) Providing assistance on the preparation of calibrants and running controls required to measure medicinal products’ critical quality attributes. MHRA will develop non-mandatory regulatory guidance that draws on national guidelines and advice from national regulators, maximising the likelihood that innovative products developed within GAMRIF funded portfolios secure regulatory approval in both LMICs and high-income countries (HICs). This project was not put out to an open, competitive tender process because MHRA is an executive agency of DHSC and therefore exempt from the tender process as it is within DHSC’s body of expertise.
