Every year, on March 24, World Tuberculosis (TB) Day is celebrated to raise awareness about TB and to step up efforts to end this present-day pandemic that affects over 10 million people. The World Health Organization’s theme for World TB Day 2023 is Yes! We can #EndTB!

The Social Science & Health Innovations for Tuberculosis (SSHIFTB) Centre is a global network of social science scholars and advocates that works to amplify attention to the neglected social dimensions of tuberculosis.
