Great to see our colleague Gloria Imodia contributing to the conversation at the bootcamp convened by Resilience Action Network Africa in partnership with @ResolveTSL to bring together voices from across Africa to strengthen epidemic preparedness & collaborative surveillance.
We wrapped up training on SRH commodities with our research team before heading to the field to collect data for a study on the accessibility of sexual & reproductive health commodities. Tracking these metrics is vital for identifying barriers to care and improving health equity.
Today as we join the global community to mark #WorldTBDay2026 we are reminded that TB is preventable and curable. Through collective action, decisive leadership and innovation TB can cease to be a public health threat. #EndTB

Did you know what a bio bank is?
A bio bank is a safe storage place where doctors keep leftover samples like blood, tissue, sputum, and DNA.
These samples are securely stored to help doctors and researchers better understand diseases and discover new treatments.
