UNION SCIENTIFIC WORKING GROUP MEETINGS
The Union currently has 14 working groups that undertake specific projects within fixed time-frames. Activities undertaken by current groups include
developing official policy statements, publishing technical guides and other resources, carrying out research projects, raising global awareness
of topical TB and lung health issues and providing a forum for discussion and development. Self-funded, working groups rely on the support and
dynamism of members in order to flourish and achieve their aims.
Non-Union members are welcome to attend the working group meetings and find out more about projects and plans for 2017, as well as how to
become involved.
