Ending TB requires adequate and sustained funding for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, care. The global debt crisis threatens investment in TB programs and research and progress towards Sustainable Development Goals at large. TAG’s Magic Mountains of Debt: Sovereign Debt Crises as Critical Barriers to Ending TB and Investing in Sustainable Development Goals analyzes the impact  of sovereign debt in depressing investments in TB programs, services, and R&D in high-TB burden nations. This issue brief makes the case for novel approaches to addressing the debt crisis now and in the future — including debt relief and reform, use of special drawing rights, and expansion of concessional financing — to expand public financing for investment in health.
