The National Stop TB Partnership in Ghana
Stop TB Ghana: The partnership was started in 2005 by Chief Austin Arinze Obiefuna, the president of Afro Global Alliance an NGO. Following discussions with the National TB control program in 2006 Stop TB Ghana was established. The first objective was to involve all people, groups and associations who showed interest in being part of the partnership movement. Now that the Partnership has recruited many partners, Stop TB Ghana focuses on sharing information, mapping resources and providing a platform for different stakeholders to link together to fight TB.
