The accountability report of TB-affected communities and civil society: Priorities to close the deadly divide
During the 36th Board meeting of the Stop TB Partnership, held on 23-26 March 2023 in Varanasi, India, the Community, Developing Country NGO and Developed Country NGO Delegations to the Stop TB Partnership Board launched The accountability report of TB-affected communities and civil society: Priorities to close the deadly divide.
The report follows up on the first ever global community report released in 2020, A deadly divide: TB commitments vs. TB realities. The 2023 iteration features the mobilization of more than 1,000 civil society and affected community partners from 92 countries. Their input is reflected throughout the report in 36 country case studies and culminates in six calls to action that are required to end the TB epidemic.
