This document contains a series of desk reviews for the eight ENGAGE-TB priority countries supported by the Global Fund (DRC, Kenya, Indonesia, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan and Tanzania).

The focus on these eight countries was justified by the high prevalence of TB and the very high number of missed/unreported cases.
