Tuberculosis/Multi-drug Resistant Tuberculosis Project 2005-2020

The ICN TB/MDR-TB project, which was part of the Eli Lilly MDR-TB Partnership, improved the care of patients with TB by training experienced nurses, who then cascaded their knowledge and skills to nursing colleagues and other health workers. The project trained thousands of nurses and they, in turn, passed on their knowledge and skills to around 180,000 nurses, other health professionals and community workers in 17 countries on three continents.
