For Round 12, Stop TB Partnership is announcing an incredible USD 13.5 million to be awarded to Tuberculosis (TB)-affected community and civil society organizations to champion ambitious and strong people-centered, human-rights based, gender-transformative national TB responses, advocacy and accountability efforts to End TB.
The Challenge Facility for Civil Society (CFCS) is the Stop TB Partnership’s flagship program. It is a unique grant mechanism for TB-affected community and civil society grassroots organisations to champion, support and contribute to the transformation of the TB response so that it promotes and protects human rights and gender equity, ends stigma and discrimination. CFCS aims to build recognized civil society or TB affected community networks that represent, support and are accountable, so that they collaborate, partner with and take part in national and global TB responses. CFCS supports community and civil society actors to engage in community-driven and high-level advocacy, overcome barriers to accessing services, and monitor the TB response to end TB by 2030.
