Around the world, communities fight every day for fair and equal health services. In this 15-part video series, GFAN advocates, and community leaders share what health equity means to them and why fully funding the Global Fund is critical to achieving it.

“The Global Fund can help support health equity by ensuring TB programs are funded, involving communities in national TB services, and providing diagnostics and treatments to high-burden countries even when they cannot fund them on their own.”

For Alex Runswick, advancing health equity means making sure lifesaving tuberculosis prevention, diagnosis, and care are available to everyone — especially in countries with limited domestic resources. The Global Fund’s commitment to funding TB programs and empowering affected communities is essential to closing gaps and saving lives.
