The conversation continues. And so does the commitment. 💬

Under the theme “Fast-Tracking Delivery, Implementation, and Commitment,” stakeholders, health professionals, and partners leaned into the urgency, aligning on solutions, strengthening accountability, and pushing for real, measurable impact.

Because ending TB isn’t just a goal… it’s a responsibility we must accelerate together.
