USAID/Cambodia Grant: Community Mobilization for TB Eradication (COMMIT 2)

The goal of USAID/Cambodia’s new five-year community tuberculosis (TB) activity is to accelerate TB case finding and case holding activities to maximize TB outcomes among Cambodians, including vulnerable populations such as Indigenous People. This Activity will build on USAID’s previous investments in community TB control, including the USAID Community Mobilization Initiatives to End Tuberculosis (COMMIT) activity, recommendations from the COMMIT’s mid-term evaluation, and lessons learned from stakeholders; and further contribute to the National TB Strategic Plan to End TB (2021-2030), World Health Organization’s (WHO) End TB Strategy, and USAID’s Global TB Strategy 2023 – 2030. This Activity will focus on improving and streamlining the implementation of the End TB strategy at the community level while strengthening longer-term systems and capacity for: improving access to and demand for high quality TB services and advancing their integration within national health systems, creating an enabling private sector environment for TB control and the provision of TB services, and improving TB Management Information System (MIS) systems and data use, to provide better and more sustainable TB services.
