The RTC Toolkit:
People-centered design for the optimal, rapid, and sustainable roll-out of TB innovations.
The RTC toolkit has been developed to support the implementation of the Stop TB Partnership’s (RTC initiative, and is for country stakeholders and partners,
including civil society and communities, interested in applying a creative, inclusive, and systematic approach to identifying, prioritizing, and selecting TB service delivery and product innovations to transform when, where, and how TB services are accessed and delivered.
The RTC toolkit provides audiences an easy-to-understand and detailed step-by-step guide for facilitating an inclusive, iterative, and country-led process to understand various groups’ needs and to use these needs as the foundation to identify, prioritize, and select innovations for introduction. The ambition is that doing things differently will lead to higher likelihood of scale and impact.
The RTC toolkit is intended to be used by countries and local organizations interested in replicating the PCD process who have met a series of readiness requirements – from having a team with the relevant capabilities in place to ensuring support from key government stakeholders.
The RTC toolkit was co-created by the Stop TB Partnership, Friends for International TB Relief (FIT) in Viet Nam, and World Alliance for Lung and Intensive
Care Medicine in Uganda (Walimu), and iterated based on feedback from PATH and the India Health Fund.
We would love to hear your feedback.
We have soft-launched v1.0 of the RTC PCD Toolkit as an opportunity to collect your feedback before finalizing and fully launching the toolkit in early 2024. We would like to hear from you on:
- What is most helpful about the RTC toolkit?
- What questions do you still have about RTC or PCD?
- How might you apply this in your work, whether for TB or other programs?
- What would you like to see more of? Less of?
Thank you in advance for your feedback!
