Here is a chance for your school and students to win prizes, and the opportunity for artwork to be displayed on the e-Bug website!
We are excited to invite Key Stage 4 students to take part in the World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (WAAW) Creative Challenge, hosted by e-Bug. Students can demonstrate their creativity through digital or physical artwork such as posters, cartoons, drawings and paintings that raise awareness about responsible use of antibiotics and knowledge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
The theme of the challenge: What can we all do to stop AMR?
Head to our downloadable Teacher Pack for more information, including classroom resources to help you integrate the challenge into your curriculum and submission guidance to get involved!
By taking part, students will learn how everyday choices like using medicines responsibly can help preserve the power of antibiotics for future generations.
🗓️ Deadline for entries: Friday 24th October
💡 Why it matters:
AMR occurs when bacteria and other microbes evolve and no longer respond to the medicines designed to kill them. This makes infections harder to treat and increases the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death. If we lose the effectiveness of antibiotics we risk returning to a time when simple illnesses were deadly.
Let’s empower students to become AMR champions through creativity. We hope you will join us in spreading this vital message
