A civil society network organisation that serves as a catalytic platform for advocacy and community systems strengthening for health, social justice, and human rights for key, vulnerable and marginalised communities in Asia and the Pacific.
Every minute, 13 people fall ill with TB in the Asia-Pacific region, contributing to more than 60% of new TB infections globally. Worse, while TB remains preventable, treatable and curable, more than 1 person dies of TB every minute in the region.

ACT! AP has empowered communities to lead the TB response. Survivors have become champions, breaking stigma, raising awareness, and ensuring people complete treatment. When communities lead, lives are saved.

People-centered, community-led TB responses help reach the most marginalized—rural communities, those facing geographical barriers, and those left behind. TB services must be accessible to ALL.

TB isn’t just about medication. It’s about dignity. It’s about mental health. It’s about peer support. Communities are leading the fight—not just against TB but against stigma, discrimination, and the systemic barriers that hold us back.

Communities affected by TB are the experts in what works. Yet, we are still fighting for our voices to be heard in policymaking spaces. No one can replace us in outreach, advocacy, and shaping better TB programs. It’s time for real inclusion!

Asia-Pacific carries two-thirds of the global TB burden. The time to invest in communities is NOW. The time to invest in Asia-Pacific is NOW. It is the right thing to do. It is the wise thing to do.

Every day, hundreds die from a preventable and curable disease. We have the medicine & the technology. If we’re not ending TB, the problem is no longer the bacteria—it’s the lack of investment, political will, & leadership. The time to act is NOW! #yeswecanendtb #commitinvestdeliver #worldtbday2025
