The TB Alliance and other organizations spearheading the research and development of new and improved tools to treat, diagnose, and prevent TB need your help to ensure that appropriate levels of political commitment and financial investment are dedicated toward TB R&D.
To assist your efforts to support these critical global health and development needs, the TB Alliance has assembled a collection of resources articulating the status, benefits of, and most pressing challenges to TB tools development. This World TB Day Advocacy Toolkit includes materials and messages appropriate for educational and advocacy purposes.
