With approval of the post-2015 global tuberculosis strategy by the World Health Assembly, the global community stands united as we work toward ambitious new targets for 2025 and 2035 to end the global TB epidemic. As we look to the future, it is important to evaluate the current global response to the epidemic so we may develop an effective and coordinated approach going forward. Major investments in TB by high-burden countries, the U.S. Government, the Global Fund (GF), the World Health Organization (WHO) and others have led to impressive progress and shown the potential for future impact. Promising new tools are now finally available, with others in the pipeline, and governments, donors and partners are allied around a new strategy with refocused resources.
