Wednesday, February 15, 2012 Action on the Social Determinants of Tuberculosis: Are Social Protection Interventions the Way Forward?" In 2009 Mario Raviglione, Director of the Stop TB Department, suggested that better tuberculosis control required investment not only in diagnostics, treatment, and health systems, but also in development initiatives addressing the social determinants of tuberculosis, including social protection interventions (such as cash transfer programs). However, practical ideas for action are still scarcer than is notional support for this approach. This symposium will explore how this agenda should be taken forward.
