Global Forum on TB Vaccines

The Global Forum on TB Vaccines is the world’s largest gathering of stakeholders striving to develop new vaccines to prevent TB. It provides a unique opportunity to review the state of the field, share the latest research and findings, and identify new and innovative approaches to TB vaccine R&D, with the end goal of developing and deploying new TB vaccines as quickly as possible. To date, six Global Forums and one virtual edition have been held, beginning with the first Global Forum in Geneva, Switzerland in 2001 (convened by WHO). The Working Group on New TB Vaccines convenes the Global Forum in collaboration with IAVI, the TuBerculosis Vaccine Initiative, and host country partner organizations.

For the first time ever, the Global Forum on TB Vaccines will be hosted in the Americas, under the theme Driving innovation from discovery to access. Don't miss this opportunity to gather with the TB vaccine research and development community in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil from 8-10 October to discuss the latest in TB vaccine R&D.
