Sign on to civil society statement on the UN HLM on TB to the Head of the WHO
UPDATE: Dr. Tedros received a hard copy of the statement with 86 signatories on 17 November. He agreed with civil society’s four points and discussed in relation to the statement:
- Having a civil society/community member open the conference
- Having targets be numbers, not percentages that can be manipulated
- Having targets at country level – including on R&D
- The need for an independent accountability mechanism that isn’t solely WHO
