NEW DELHI: To address the tribal health challenges in India, the Centre on Wednesday launched a first of its kind multi-stakeholder ‘Tribal Health Collaborative (THC)’ committed to ending preventable deaths in the tribal communities.
Starting with 50 tribal aspirational districts THC would help to accelerate TB activities and achieve India’s target of TB Elimination by 2025 through the launch of “Jan Andolan for TB” along with focus on addressing key determinants like alcohol dependence and under-nutrition in tribal areas.
Over a 10-year period, the work of the THC will be extended to 177 tribal Districts as recognised by the Ministry of Tribal Affairs. Called “Anamaya”, the THC is an initiative of the ministry of tribal affairs supported by Piramal Foundation and Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF).
