The Center of Excellence (COE) is managed by the USAID-funded TB Data, Impact Assessment, and Communications Hub (TB DIAH) project, with implementation support from the Georgian National Center for Disease Control (NCDC) and National Center for Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (NCTLD).

While TB DIAH oversees this virtual COE, it operates with the expertise of staff from Georgia’s NCDC and NCTLD. The COE has been designed to establish and promote best practices with TB data collection, reporting, visualization, analysis, and use; engage national TB programs with necessary support, assistance, and resources; support trainings on TB monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and surveillance; provide leadership, guiding the implementation of TB M&E and surveillance activities; and support capacity building, learning, and knowledge exchange.
