CBTO Community Based TB/HIV/AIDS Organisation

CBTO Community Based TB/HIV/AIDS Organisation CBTO is a community-based health and social welfare initiative fighting the epidemics of TB/HIV/AIDS out of Lusaka, Zambia.

Community Based TB/HIV/AIDS Organization (CBTO) is a community-based health and social welfare initiative that serves a population of over 160,000 people (data from 2006) drawn from Chelstone, Avondale, and the Kamanga and Ester slums on the outskirts of Lusaka. It runs a government-supported centre for TB/HIV/AIDS treatment and runs several supplementary services that are not government supported

for infected and affected families in the community. CBTO was initially formed with a bias toward prevention, care and support for persons infected and affected by TB. However as a result of World Health Organisation (WHO) declaring TB as a global emergency which had to be fought alongside HIV/AIDS, CBTO started tackling the duo epidemics together.
