Support the Centennial Campaign and Centennial Dinner

The Union was founded on 20 October 1920 when representatives from 31 countries pledged to work together to fight TB – an intractable and pervasive problem that at that time had no vaccine, no diagnostic tools and no cure with which to combat it. This central organisation through which the global TB response would be built was founded on the principles of knowledge sharing and global cooperation.

The President’s 2020 Centennial Dinner commemorates the many advances The Union has made against tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and illnesses caused by tobacco use, as well as considering the public health challenges we still face.

This occasion, on the eve of the Union World Conference on Lung Health, gathers friends of The Union, like-minded scientists, academics, activists and politicians all united in continuing the fight against these deadly diseases that too often target the world’s most vulnerable people. The funds raised from this dinner will be used to support our next century of global impact.

Corporations and foundations can invest in the Centennial Campaign, recognising that millions of lives have been improved and saved through The Union’s work in its first 100 years and that many more will benefit over the coming decades.
