A reflection on 2024

Category: News

From changing WHO guidelines and identifying key improvements to drug-resistant TB management, to being awarded grants from the Global Fund in Myanmar and the Gates Foundation for an active case finding project in India to delivering another fantastic Union Conference.

After such an impressive year for The Union, Dr Cassandra Kelly-Cirino and Prof Guy Marks look back at everything we have accomplished in 2024.

The Union is the world’s first global health organisation, founded in 1920. We are a global leader in ending TB, we fight the tobacco industry, and we solve key problems in treating major diseases.
