Mission & Interests
Goals: We are a coalition of likeminded stakeholders who represent phages in industry, the scientific community and civil society. We want to realize the full potential of phages in Europe.
Promoting the widespread use of phages will help us to address critical challenges of our time, including:
i.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), a major public health threat which is currently responsible for 33,000 deaths per year in the EU alone and adds an additional €1.5 billion to EU healthcare costs. This figure is forecast to rise to 10 million deaths per year by 2050.
ii.With a growing population, we will have 10 billion people on the planet by 2050, and we need a way to feed them.
iii.Greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural production currently account for 11% of GHG emissions and have risen 14% since 2000.
