#EndTB Webinar

Join us on 21 November at 15:00 (CET)

To mark International Men’s Day 2022, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (Union) Working Group on Gender Equity in TB, are organizing a webinar on multisectoral engagement to improve gender equity in TB and ensure no one is left behind. This session will continue the theme of World TB Day 2022, which calls for greater investment in TB, building on WHO's Framework for Collaborative Action on TB and Comorbidities, and look ahead to the United Nations High Level Meeting on TB in 2023.

This webinar aims to:

· To bring together TB-affected communities and their coalitions, women’s and men’s groups, community-based and civil society organizations, NGOs, partners & experts working on gender and health, policymakers, and program implementers, to create a multisectoral conversation around developing a gender-sensitive response to end TB.

· To explore multisectoral engagement opportunities to improve gender equity in TB.

· To widen understanding of gender inclusivity in the global response to end TB.
