WE DON’T WANT A SINGLE PERSON TO GET SICK WITH TUBERCULOSIS. WE AIM TO ACHIEVE THAT BY COMBINING STORIES AND SCIENCE.
TB Proof aims to end the TB pandemic by

Being part of TB Proof saved my life. When
I joined I was struggling through the harsh
treatment alone, without support but being
welcomed in to TB Proof I had a family of TB
survivors.
A family who helped save my life and also taught me
how to use my own voice to advocate for change.
An advocate and activist was also born and with my
voice I now fight against the occupational illnesses
faced by health care workers, including
TB. With our voices I believe we can end
TB, along with other illnesses”.

TB Proof members actively took part in the World Conference on Lung Health in Paris, and spoke on behalf of Civil Society Organizations during the opening ceremony. They actively participated in various sessions such as Oral Abstracts, Late Breaker sessions, posters, and symposiums. As a cohesive team, they seized the chance to visit the Eiffel Tower and relished in the experience of sharing a crepe together 🇫🇷 . Moments from this memorable occasion have been captured in pictures, including a snapshot featuring our youngest member 👶. #UnionConf2023
Phumeza Tisile along with Goodman Makanda Advocacy Officers at TB Proof, facilitated a learning session on a strategic guide for impactful advocacy, guiding TB survivors from TB Free Foundation of Namibia in acquiring skills to effectively engage with policymakers. It was a fulfilling day of knowledge exchange and the sharing of personal TB stories. Africa Coalition on TB The Global Fund Goodman Cyee Makanda Karin Husselmann
