The aim of this reserach is to evaluate the extent of TB stigma and ways by which it impedes an effective TB response. Based on the findings identified through this process, a series of community-empowerment and stigma-reduction recommendations and strategies to enhance the availability, accessibility and acceptability of quality TB services to all persons, with special consideration to the needs of key, vulnerable, and underserved populations, will be developed, integrated into an Indonesia TB CRG and Stigma Action Plan, and assessed through TB community-led monitoring mechanisms.
