The World Health Organization (WHO) organized a special Talk Show to commemorate World TB Day on 24 March 2025 at 13:30 CET.
The spotlight this year, under the theme ‘Yes! We Can End TB: Commit, Invest, Deliver’ - is a strong call for hope, urgency, and accountability. Heads of State at the 2023 UN High-Level Meeting on TB made bold, ambitious commitments to accelerate the global fight against tuberculosis, setting concrete, measurable targets for 2027. While these pledges represent a significant milestone, sustained and intensified action is critical. Scaling up interventions requires strong policies, comprehensive national strategies, and substantial financial investment to drive impact at global, regional, and national levels.
The event took place in a talk-show format with speakers joining in person or connected by video on WHO’s interactive web-platform – End TB Forum. The main speakers include WHO leadership, Ministers, leaders and other high-level government representatives, Heads of Agencies, TB survivors, civil society, and partners. The Show was broadcast live, with interactive Q&A from the audience online.
