Union Conference Attendees Share How They Use Tuberculosis Data

Helping communities understand the impact of tuberculosis.

Analyzing the progress of meeting reporting goals.

Gaining a better understanding of the scope of TB drug resistance.

These are just three of the ways people say they are using tuberculosis (TB) data. The quotes come from attendees at the 50th Union World Conference on Lung Health, held October 30–November 2, 2019, in Hyderabad, India.

They stopped by the exhibit booth run by the TB Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub (TB DIAH) project. TB DIAH is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and is part of the agency’s Global Accelerator to End Tuberculosis. TB DIAH’s goal is to ensure optimal demand for and analysis of TB data and the appropriate use of that information to measure performance and inform decision making that will help to end TB.

“We enjoyed connecting with delegates at the Union Conference to learn how they use TB data and to introduce them to our project,” said Ann Fitzgerald, MPH, TB DIAH’s deputy director and field services manager.

The TB DIAH project is part of USAID's performance-based measures to end TB—the Global Accelerator to End Tuberculosis. This TB DIAH website features a data hub, guidance, and tools to support the work of the global TB community. TB DIAH makes possible optimal analysis and use of TB data to inform national TB programs, policies, and USAID-supported interventions.

This information was produced with the support of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under the terms of the TB Data, Impact Assessment and Communications Hub (TB DIAH) Associate Award No. 7200AA18LA00007. TB DIAH is implemented by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in partnership with John Snow, Inc. Views expressed are not necessarily those of USAID or the United States government.
