TB at a Tipping Point: Why Global Action Can’t Wait

TB Parliamentary Breakfast Event

Parliamentary Breakfast Save the Date.png

Tuberculosis is the world’s leading infectious disease killer - claiming over 1.3 million lives every year, despite being both preventable and curable.

​

Thanks to international cooperation and aid investments, we’ve made real progress in the fight to end TB. But that progress is now under threat.

​

Global cuts to aid, including reductions to USAID’s TB programs, are putting vulnerable communities at greater risk. At a time when the world should be scaling up action, we are at risk of pulling back - with devastating consequences for the world’s poorest and most at-risk populations.

​

Join us for this timely event at Parliament House to hear from health experts, frontline advocates, and global partners about:

  • The human cost of TB in low-income countries

  • What’s at stake as major donors reduce funding

​

  • Why Australian leadership matters now more than ever before

 

Together, we can ensure ending TB remains a global priority.
