Drawing insights from environmental governance where collective action problems are familiar, we propose nine adaptable strategies for AMR governance, offering policymakers and scholars a flexible policy toolkit for addressing AMR. By recognizing the similarities between AMR governance and other shared-resource challenges in environmental governance, this article examines potential strategies for AMR governance. From these strategies, we purposively selected three case studies to illustrate how each approach could inform AMR policy, focusing on: (1) market-based mechanisms in climate governance, (2) state-led initiatives in water management, and (3) community-led efforts in biodiversity conservation. Framed as adaptable strategies, we emphasize the importance of tailoring each option or a blend of options to the economic, political, and health care contexts unique to AMR challenges worldwide. Recognizing the limits of environmental governance, we emphasize that effective AMR strategies should integrate ongoing evaluation, international collaboration, and inclusive stakeholder engagement to foster global commitment and meaningful action.
