In the fight to #EndTB we must #LeaveNoOneBehind.

For Selamawit Bekele, that means remembering the poor and marginalized communities that are affected by tuberculosis – a curable disease.

Congratulations to @GlobalFund and TB partners for achieving record-level TB treatment targets in 2022. However, all of these efforts are at risk without adequate funding. We need a global movement for adequate TB financing to sustain the remarkable ambitions and End TB by 2030!

'Do not tell anyone'-these were the words of my doctor who diagnosed me with TB said. and 12 years later, I'm here today to tell everyone my story from this UN stage and urge world leaders to destigmatize TB, because stigma costs life ~ Handaa Emkh-Amgalan//Stigmatized #2023TBHLM

[SelamawitA Bekele @selseladu]

Deputy SecretaryGeneral @AminaJMohammed urged member states to prioritize TB in their national agenda & allocate the necessary resources to ensure prevention, diagnosis and treatment, and ultimately, the vaccine, noting all of this requires financing on a massive scale #2023TBHLM
