At GARDP North America, we develop innovative partnerships to guard the power of antibiotics, so that modern medicine works for you.

“Our organization aims to make sure all people have the right antibiotic treatment when they need it. Antibiotic innovation is vital regardless of market profitability.”

- Dr. Sara Elizabeth Cosgrove, Board Chair, GARDP North America

THE VALUE OF A NON-PROFIT PARTNERSHIP

Founded in 2021, GARDP North America drives innovative solutions to antibiotic resistance in North America. As a member of the Global Antibiotic Research & Development Partnership’s network, we pursue the common goal of accelerating the development and availability of much-needed antibiotic treatments.

 

We harness the best of public and private sector resources, capacities, and scientific expertise. As a non-profit, we can place public health needs ahead of commercial returns. We work with public and private partners on late-stage drug development. We bring our expertise to the conduct of clinical trials, even in hard-to-reach geographic areas. We further support drug manufacturing and ensure treatments reach the people who need them most.

FUNDING PARTNERS

Partnerships are at the heart of our success in developing new and improved treatments. We are extremely grateful for the commitment of GARDP’s funders in supporting our work to develop new treatments to address the urgent health crisis of antibiotic resistance. Thank you.
