Around the world, nurses have a vital role in the care and treatment of tuberculosis (TB). To highlight this important role, a symposium side event is being run by and for nurses during the 49th Union World Conference on Lung Health.

This session is organised by the KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation and the V&VN Dutch nursing association, in cooperation with the Nurses and Allied Professionals Sub-Section (NAPS) of The Union.

The symposium will highlight best practices from different regions in the world, and there will be the opportunity for sharing knowledge, discussion and networking.

More information about the programme and registration for this symposium will be released in the coming months.
