It takes place between the 14th and 18th October in Taipei (Taiwan).
What is included in the course?

Participants will also have the opportunity to visit the Taiwan Centers for Disease Control.
Who can apply for a scholarship?
Due to securing external funding The Union is able to waive the course fees to participants from high MDR-TB burden countries associated to a National TB Programme.
If you are successful in securing a scholarship your course fees (2,000 EUR) will be waived. The scholarship waives the course fees, but participants need to secure funding to cover their travel and accommodation.
How do I apply for a scholarship?
To apply for a scholarship, you will need to complete a registration form and when asked for the sponsor, select the “scholarship” option.
You will need to submit a CV and a letter of support or evidence that you have funding to cover your travel and accommodation to attend the course.
