There are 8 days left to register for the UN High-Level Meeting (HLM) on TB, which will be held on 22 September, 2023 in New York. Heads of State and other leaders will come together to revitalize commitments and actions to accelerate efforts to end TB. This will provide strong impetus to step up progress in countries against this ancient disease.
The theme of the meeting is: “Advancing science, finance and innovation, and their benefits, to urgently end the global tuberculosis epidemic, in particular, by ensuring equitable access to prevention, testing, treatment and care.” More information on the planned programme can be found in UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/77/274.
