Project Highlight

The ICN TB/ MDR-TB Project has been building global nursing capacity in the prevention, care and treatment of TB as part of the Lilly MDR-TB Partnership since 2005. The project uses a Training of Trainers (TOT) methodology, designed specifically to encourage practice development. This means that experienced nurses working mainly in the TB and HIV field, are trained to cascade information to nursing colleagues and other health workers with the purpose of making improvements to patient care delivery.
