TAG, APCASO, and Diagnostics Equity Consortium (DEC) hosted a two-part webinar series exploring the evolving TB diagnostic landscape and strategies to increase TB testing coverage, with a specific focus on the South-East Asia and Western-Pacific regions.
TAG is one of the endorsers of this Diagnostic Equity Consortium statement and call to action advocating for scaling up access to diagnostics to address the deadly gaps in TB testing.
This policy brief describes the crucial role NIH plays in supporting research on new products to prevent, diagnose, and cure TB. This research is especially important at a time when new forms of drug resistance are emerging globally, and rates of TB are rising in the U.S. With continued and increased funding, NIH can protect Americans from the growing threat of TB at home and abroad.
The new 2025 update of An Activist’s Guide to Shorter Treatment for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis lays out what community advocates need to know about WHO-recommended regimens for drug-resistant TB.
To accompany the updated Activist’s Guide to Shorter Treatment for Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis, TAG also developed three additional educational materials to support community-based and civil society organizations leading treatment literacy, peer support, and community-led monitoring activities:
