In February 2025, the first annual meeting of the Southern and East Africa Regional TB Network (SEARN-TB) was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Organized by AHRI, the secretariat of SEARN TB, this annual meeting was an opportunity to bring together representatives of the 22+ national TB programmes in the SEARN TB region to take stock of progress made since the establishment of the network in 2023 and identify priority actions for the year to come.
