Full Description
This volume offers a critical and interdisciplinary analysis of India's tuberculosis (TB) elimination efforts, examining public health policies, institutional frameworks, and community-based interventions. It highlights both the achievements and the persistent structural and systemic challenges-such as stigma, exclusion, and governance gaps that shape the country's response to TB.
Drawing on original research, fieldwork, and policy analysis by leading academicians and practitioners, the book presents grounded case studies and comparative global frameworks. Each chapter concludes with actionable models and policy recommendations, making this volume a practical resource for programmatic reform in resource-constrained settings.
Bridging education, management, public policy, and development studies, the book reorients the TB discourse toward equity, community resilience, and inclusive governance. It offers replicable strategies and scalable innovations relevant not only to India but also to other high-burden regions across the Global South.
It is an essential resource for public health professionals, policymakers, TB program managers, development agencies, and researchers working on infectious disease control and health system strengthening.
