We invite you to join the webinar “The DR-TB Care Cascade Gaps We Keep Missing: The Evidence Communities Need to Shape Stronger Funding Priorities”.
Where do we lose people along the TB care cascade, and why does this happen? What can be done to reduce these losses, and how can this data be used to inform funding priorities?
These questions will be discussed with international and national experts during an interactive webinar from the “The ABC for a TB Activist” series.
Date: May 13, 2026
Time: 10:00–11:30 CET

Following an introduction to the DR-TB care cascade framework, we will explore its practical application using examples from two countries in the EECA region. The webinar will also highlight real barriers faced by people with DR-TB and discuss possible ways to overcome them. In addition, participants will learn practical approaches to using cascade data in strategic planning and in developing stronger, more patient-centred interventions for Global Fund funding requests.
