For more than two decades, Partners In Health has been working to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively-drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) across three continents. From the slums of Lima, Peru, to the mountains of Lesotho, to the streets of Tomsk, Russia, we’ve pioneered a community-based treatment model aimed at alleviating the clinical, social, and economic factors that fuel the disease. As the global burden of MDR-TB and XDR-TB increases, PIH remains committed to building local capacity, providing long-term accompaniment, and forging partnerships with local ministries of health and other stakeholders.
