Our vision is a world free
from TB.
Our mission is to
address the health,
social and economic
impact of the global TB
epidemic amongst
vulnerable and
marginalised groups.
Why TB?
Leading cause of
death for people
living with HIV in
Africa
Annually 9 million new
cases and 1.7 million
deaths
Acts as a barrier to
development by
impeding progress
towards other issues
such as education and
poverty
from a preventable
and curable disease
Kills more women
than all other causes
of maternal mortality
combined
Neglected issue considered a disease
of the past
