Tackling the spread of infectious diseases like tuberculosis (TB) is a priority across the recently published bilateral and multilateral development reviews and the research review. The United Nations General Assembly recently agreed to hold the first ever High Level Meeting on TB in 2018 and ahead of this, we will work with international partners to galvanise increased commitments.
