Our Research
Adapted especially for the Global TB Caucus from the work of Sachin Silva, Michael Reid and Eric Goosby, this briefing studies the economic impact of TB in the light of three different scenarios where we meet the End TB targets in 2030, 2045, or keep the current progress rate.
The briefing is also available in French, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish
Introducing a new perspective in the international TB response, the research, commissioned by the Caucus and conducted by KPMG estimates that deaths from TB will cost the global economy USD$1 trillion over the next 15 years.
Following the UK government's independent Review of Antimicrobial Resistance in 2016, GTBC produced this report outlining the causes and predicted impact of TB and Multi-Drug Resistant TB in the G20.
2017 was a significant year in building the momentum to address the TB epidemic on a global level. The Caucus continued its impressive rate of expansion with the launch of 12 new National Caucuses.
