India faces a silent health crisis: tuberculosis (TB) and lung diseases. TB alone claims 3,500 lives every day, making it the world's second leading cause of death from a single infectious agent, surpassed only by COVID-19. With rising air pollution and tobacco use, the burden of lung diseases continues to grow. However, amidst these daunting challenges, there is hope.
In this episode, we are joined by Nidhi Bansal, the Country Director for The Union India Office. The Union, a global organization at the forefront of fighting TB and lung disease, is driving impactful change through research, advocacy, and community engagement. Nidhi brings decades of experience tackling complex health crises worldwide, and in this candid conversation, she shares her insights, experiences, and vision for a healthier India.
Join us as we delve into the unique challenges, inspiring success stories, and the road ahead in the fight against TB and lung disease.
