Combating tuberculosis in 2023. For the first time in over a decade, tuberculosis is on the rise. How can we combat this pandemic and what is being done through L’Initiative?

The MIARINA project aims to improve overall tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS management in prisons in Madagascar.

Since 2018, L’Initiative has published a call for operational research projects. Examples of innovative projects under way in Ethiopia and Viet Nam.

Complementarity between the national programme and community work. Community work is supporting the national tuberculosis response. Two stakeholders discuss this complementarity in action in Niger.

Community work is essential in combating tuberculosis. Nuccia Saleri explains the specific challenges in West and Central Africa.

Gender is seen as a key issue for development cooperation at Expertise France. L'Initiative is committed to the cross-cutting integration of gender in all of its activities, in accordance with France's international strategy for equality between women and men. This approach to gender is therefore integrated into all L'Initiative activities.

The "Key L’Initiative data" series has a dual purpose of providing a precise and concise overview of an intervention topic and offering the opportunity to review the specifics of the program's actions.

L'Initiative's new Accelerator mechanism will provide the University Joseph KI-ZERBO in Burkina Faso with 3 million Euros to strengthen human resources for intervention epidemiology in ten West African countries.

L’Initiative has demonstrated ongoing support for Niger over the past 10 years and continues to ensure the support it provides aligns other French global health partners in terms of meeting health priorities and improving the impact of Global Fund grants. A Regional Global Health Advisor is now present in Niamey, which is beneficial in terms of consolidating this strengthened approach to France's support to health in Niger.

In line with its actions and commitment to strengthening human resources for health, L'Initiative is organising a "TB Masterclass" end of 2023.
