UNOPS hosts the Stop Tuberculosis
Partnership Secretariat (STBP) as of 1 January 2015, in Geneva, Switzerland.
The vision of the Stop TB Partnership is to realize the goal of elimination of
Tuberculosis (TB) as a public health problem and, ultimately, to obtain a world
free of TB by ensuring that every TB patient has access to effective diagnosis,
treatment and cure; stopping transmission of TB; reducing the inequitable
social and economic toll of TB; and developing and implementing new preventive,
diagnostic and therapeutic tools and strategies. The Stop Partnership is
uniquely positioned to support the development and further implementation by
partners of the current and future Global Plan, acting as a coordinator and
catalyst for the range of partners engaged in the fight against TB.
Founded in 2001, the Stop TB
Partnership's mission is to serve every person who is vulnerable to TB and
ensure that high-quality treatment is available to all who need it. Our
partners include international and technical organizations, government
programmes, research and funding agencies, foundations, NGOs, civil society and
community groups and the private sector.
