A Human Rights-Based Response to TB GCTA in Partnership with North-western University and STOP TB Partnership conducted the first ever Human Rights Based Response to TB Workshop for lawyers and TB affected community and civil society members. This workshop brought lawyers & affected communities together to further a country level rights based TB response. The workshop was modeled to further the goal of the Nairobi Strategy to "develop and implement a human rights-based response to TB at the global, regional, national and local levels." The workshop had representation from - Kenya, Botswana, Cambodia, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal and India and served as a stepping stone for continued conversations with all the representatives. We plan to continue conversations with the group to further cohesive and collaborative human rights-based work at all levels.
