Contribution | |
| Please tell us how your organization will contribute to the Global Plan to Stop TB by briefly describing its involvement in any of the areas of work listed below: | |
|
DOTS Expansion and Enhancement: We think the best contribution our medical students can make is through providing human resources for social mobilization, advocacy and communication of DOTS and TB control programmes in their respective countries. However, our students would need technical training, mentorship and support so they can make a useful contribution. |
