It is Time to Ensure No Child is Left Behind
Overview
Until recently, existing tools available to support budget development (i.e OneHealth tool v. 4.761) did not adequately account for specific needs of pediatric TB. To address this gap, several partners collaborated to develop a budgeting tool that incorporates high priority pediatric TB interventions and assists countries in budgeting important activities for childhood TB programming. This brief introduces this budgeting tool and highlights the importance of using available tools to inform the development of budgets for national TB strategic plans as well as bilateral and multilateral funding proposals, including the Global Fund, to adequately reflect the funding resources needed to address pediatric TB in the country.
