The IMPAACT4TB Consortium and partners have been working towards delivering transformational change in the accessibility and use of Tuberculosis(TB) Preventive treatment(TPT) across 12 high-burden TB project countries since the start of the project in 2018.

Funded by Unitaid, the IMPAACT4TB Consortium works in collaboration with the World Health Organisation(WHO) and focused primarily on providing safer, shorter TPT (3HP and 1HP) that is affordable and accessible to target populations: People living with HIV, children under 5 years and all household contacts.

The IMPAACT4TB Consortium members have exceptional experience in shaping markets, strengthening supply chain management and supporting National TB Programmes in high-burden countries. The consortium has implemented innovative strategies to deliver 3HP and 1HP to high-risk groups in the 12 project countries, and the lessons learned along the way will be used to generate more evidence, support scale-up globally and contribute to meeting the global End TB targets.

As the project is now in Phase 2 (2022 - 2024) to generate more evidence for underserved populations, the impact of phase 1 has had a domino effect globally.
