Advocacy, Communication and Social Mobilization (ACSM) for Tuberculosis Control: A Handbook for Country Programmes
This handbook is a guide to support the design and implementation of effective advocacy, communication and social mobilization activities in tuberculosis (TB) control at country level. A significant scale-up of such activities is needed to achieve global targets and are particularly essential with the growing emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis. ACSM activities can support timely diagnosis and treatment completion, which will minimize the chances that resistant bacteria will evolve. This handbook is primarily intended for staff planning, organizing and supervising TB control activities at the national level but can also be used at the provincial, state and regional levels and by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and others: communications officers, epidemiologists, program supervisors, TB medical specialists, nurses, bacteriologists, statisticians, health educators, logistics officers and trainers.

Advocacy, Communication and Social Mobilization for TB Control: A Guide to Developing Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Surveys
This guide is designed for tuberculosis (TB) program and staff who intend
to conduct advocacy, communication and social mobilization (ACSM) activities as part of their broader TB control strategy. The guide may also be a helpful tool for consultants hired to assist country programs in conducting
ACSM work. It was developed as a tool to help systematize countries’ approaches to collecting and using data on knowledge, attitudes
and practices (KAP) as an evidence base for planning, refining and evaluating ACSM work. This resource is as a practical toolkit that
offers a theoretical framework, practical suggestions, and a menu of useful resources and tools.
