Yesterday was #WorldTBDay but the fight goes on year-round. We are pleased to announce a new $1 million USAID tuberculosis project led by REACH Ethiopia, which will build upon two decades of U.S.-Ethiopia partnership to fight TB. Under this project, we will work closely with the Ministry of Health, city governments, local partners, and health workers to find and refer undiagnosed TB patients in urban settings in an effort to ultimately save many more lives in our journey to #EndTB once and for all.
REACH Ethiopia grew out of a TB project that started in 2010. This project introduced an innovative community package that engaged health extension workers (HEWs) to increase TB case detection and treatment adherence.
