🌍 On World #Tuberculosis Day, MENAHRA would like to take this opportunity to shed light on the importance of combating #stigma and discrimination surrounding tuberculosis (#TB). Nader’s experience mirrors that of many others, highlighting the fear and discomfort caused by the lack of understanding within our communities.
#YesWeCanEndTB by addressing stigma, discrimination, and other barriers to access essential TB services. 📢 On this World TB Day 2024, we urge political leaders, civil society, donors, researchers, TB communities, the private sector, and each individual to join forces.
➡ Let’s strengthen #healthsystems, prioritize #humanrights and gender-responsive approaches, and ensure equitable access to diagnosis and treatment services. 🔎 It’s important to reach key populations, including People who use drugs (#PWUD).
✅ MENAHRA is always committed to advancing #research, #advocacy, and capacity building initiatives throughout the #MENA region to combat TB and promote #publichealth.
Together, Yes, we can end TB. 🤝
