Compared to the first data call on April-July 2017, GLASS has seen a 64% increase in country enrolment and more than twice the number of countries submitting AMR data in 2018. The rapid increase in country enrolment and active participation in a global

Most importantly,
together with countries and partners, WHO is leading the way towards the further development and consolidation of a functional and comprehensive global surveillance system, which will be able to operate in diverse economic and socio-political contexts,
and still provide timely, reliable, and actionable data. Communication, harmonisation, and coordination between international, regional, and national organisations are key priorities for the success of the system.
