Uganda is among the 30 TB/HIV high-burden countries in the world, with a high incidence of 200/100,000 population in 2018. A significant proportion of tuberculosis (TB) cases are not detected each year, which is a risk factor for spreading TB among the general population.

The USAID Regional Health Integration to Enhance Services- North Lango project supports…
