As a result of successful partnership and remarkable results achieved, Government has substantially increased its allocations to the TB programme through UNDP.

It illustrates UNDP’s effectiveness, transparency and accountability, especially at times of global pandemic” noted Natia Natsvlishvili, UNDP Resident Representative a.i.
