In the morning before the opening of the high-level meeting, affected communities, ministers of health, representatives of the United Nations, TB/HIV programme implementers and technical experts came together at a side event entitled No One Left Behind: Scaling Up Integrated People-Centred TB/HIV Care Towards Universal Health Coverage. The event provided a space to discuss the current challenges, gaps and opportunities in serving people and communities affected by TB/HIV and how each stakeholder has a unique opportunity to commit to increase the effort, overcome the barriers and scale up programmes and policies that work."
