Building a virtual community of practice The evolution of the TBPPM learning network, India chapter

India's National Tuberculosis (TB) Elimination Program strategically involves private providers to achieve its 2025 goal of ending TB. The government's patient-provider support agency scheme (PPSA) aims to expand the Public-Private Mix (PPM) strategy using domestic resources, though challenges persist in cross-learning and documentation. The TB Public Private Mix Learning Network (TBPPM-LN) launched its India chapter in 2021, connecting PPM stakeholders virtually. With 600 + members, TBPPM-India, acting as a digital Community of Practice, is pivotal in fostering a learning culture, leading knowledge-sharing initiatives, and disseminating TBPPM field innovations, contributing significantly to India's intensified efforts against TB.
