"TB and Smoking: Addressing One of the Biggest Gaps in the TB Response."
Advertisement
We invite you to join us in Rio at the The Union World Conference on Lung Health for the Community Connect workshop, "TB and Smoking: Addressing One of the Biggest Gaps in the TB Response."
Smoking remains one of the leading preventable risk factors for tuberculosis, yet tobacco-related interventions are still largely absent from TB policies, services, and community programs. Why does this gap persist, and what can communities do to change it?
Join community advocates and TB experts for an interactive discussion on smoking prevention, smoking cessation, tobacco harm reduction, and practical ways to make tobacco interventions an integral part of the TB response.
This will be more than a series of presentations. We want to hear your experiences, ideas, and priorities, and work together to identify community-led solutions that can turn evidence into action.
