Contribution

Please tell us how your organization will contribute to the Global Plan to Stop TB by briefly describing its involvement in any of the areas of work listed below:

TB Care Delivery:
We use community/ strategy advocacy, community and social mobilization. This method helps our organization to reach more communities at a large scale with the use of various medias like: T.V and Radio programs, Social Media, community women's groups etc.

Drug-Resistant TB:
All TB patients are monitored and those patients who develop problems are encouraged to change the type of TB medication be taken through the guidance of specialized TB trained personnel.

TB-HIV:
More people here in Zambia have more Information on HIV, TB is known but with more myths than any other disease. Hence we collaborate the two diseases and sensitize the communities to take TB seriously like any other disease.

Laboratory Strengthening:
We under go health center by center to check on services provided by Laboratories if they are up to the standard. In most cases we have noticed that more health centers have very poor Laboratory hence we see aid from various donors to help in improving the TB/HIV Laboratory.

New Diagnostics:
We encourage the ministry of health consider very newly built health facility to be a New Diagnostic center for they are very few Diagnostic centers in Zambia despite being one of the countries in the world with very high number of TB cases.

New TB Drugs:
If they is new discovered TB Drug, will try by all means in collaboration with Ministry of Health to send out information in all parts of the country.

New TB Vaccines:
If they is new discovered TB Vaccines, will try by all means in collaboration with Ministry of Health to send out information in all parts of the country.
