What the grant funds

The purpose of ACCELERATE - Accelerate TB Elimination and Program Resilience Activity is to support South Africa’s efforts to achieve TB elimination through early detection, appropriate treatment and care, and prevention among vulnerable populations, particularly those infected with TB, drug resistant TB (DR-TB), or TB/HIV co-infection. ACCELERATE is the flagship USAID/SA TB project which comprises two separate activities - ACCELERATE 1 targets technical support and interventions at the national, provincial level and in high TB burden districts. ACCELERATE 2 hereinafter referred to as the Activity targets technical support and interventions at the provincial, district, facility and community level in lower TB burden districts and will advance overall progress towards TB elimination by fast tracking elimination in lower TB burden districts.
