We have brochures about tuberculosis available in many languages. They have been developed in close collaboration with people affected by tuberculosis, voluntary treatment supporters and health personnel in Norway. The information material provides both factual knowledge and practical advice, and they convey hope and support.
The brochures can be used by people affected by tuberculosis and their families, and for health- and social workers and others who may meet people affected by tuberculosis.
They are free of charge and can be or downloaded from this site or ordered from post@lhl-internasjonal.no.
External evaluations of the brochures show that people affected by tuberculosis find that it helps them to complete their treatment. This is because they learnt that they would get well, and that is easier to be open with others about the disease. In addition, sharing the knowledge with others reduces stigma and discrimination.
