TB Care Delivery:
CARAVAN is actively contributing to the Global Plan to Stop TB through TB Care Delivery. Our focus extends beyond the coal miner community, as we aim to expand outreach to the general public, especially in remote areas where access to health facilities is limited, and awareness is lacking. Our commitment involves not only providing assistance and screening but also implementing advocacy, communications, and social mobilization initiatives to ensure that TB awareness reaches even the most underserved populations. This expansion aligns with our dedication to making a meaningful impact on TB control in Malakand Division and beyond.
