Listen Later

We've heard how tuberculosis affects the body. We know what TB treatment looks like. In this episode, we cover Indigenous-led solutions. We hear what's working in communities right now, and what needs to happen to end TB by 2030. Tina Campbell joins us to share her experience as a registered nurse and TB Advisor for the Northern Inter-Tribal Health Authority (NITHA) in Saskatchewan. As a Cree woman who’s spent most of her career in Nunavut, she has extensive experience with Inuit who have been diagnosed with TB and advocates for improvements in TB care. Throughout the interview we also hear from Dr. Ben Geboe and Igah Sanguya about the power of storytelling and lived experiences.

At the end, Lucica Ditiu, Executive Director of the Stop TB Partnership, shares what the UN organization is doing to tackle tuberculosis on a global scale and provides hope for a forthcoming TB vaccine.
