Multisectoral Accountability Framework to Accelerate Progress to End Tuberculosis by 2030. WHO. (2019)
 |
In November 2017, 117 national delegations adopted the Moscow Declaration to End TB at the first WHO Global Ministerial Conference on Ending TB: A Multisectoral Response. They committed to “supporting the development of a multisectoral accountability framework” to accelerate progress to end TB. They called on WHO to develop the framework, working in close cooperation with relevant partners. At the 71st World Health Assembly (WHA) in May 2018, Member States welcomed the WHO draft multisectoral accountability framework (hereafter referred to as the MAF-TB). The WHA also requested the Director-General to continue to develop the MAF-TB, in consultation with Member States, and working in close collaboration with partners, as well as to provide technical support for national adaptation and use of the MAF-TB.

This is mainly due to challenges in accessing quality, affordable and equitable TB services and care. Millions of people affected by TB endure its hardships and manage to survive despite these barriers, which are driven by and heightened by TB stigma. Put simply, to end TB, we must end TB stigma. |
