FHI 360 at The Union World Conference on Lung Health 2022
The fight to control tuberculosis (TB) globally, which the World Health Organization aims to achieve by 2030, has become all the more urgent, as the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically set the effort back. FHI 360 is a longtime member of the global TB community, and we continue to lead global TB programs designed to strengthen TB service delivery and develop TB research capacity. We are uniquely positioned to discuss the intersection of TB, COVID-19, HIV and AIDS.
FHI 360’s work featured in the 2022 Union World Conference on Lung Health reflects our commitment to the theme “Combating Pandemics: Today and Tomorrow.” Together with our fellow Union members, we continue to work toward the goal of eliminating all lung health pandemics.
