In terms of TB-HIV collaboration, the program supported the implementation of TB-HIV joint planning documents in 10 districts, which aimed to enhance collaboration between TB and HIV/AIDS programs. The program also supported the development of a TB-HIV national action plan, which aimed to improve collaboration between TB and HIV/AIDS programs. The program's operations research component aimed to identify effective interventions for TB control and prevention. One study found that the use of GeneXpert testing led to a significant increase in TB case detection and treatment outcomes. Another study found that the implementation of TB-HIV joint planning documents led to improved collaboration between TB and HIV/AIDS programs. The program's success was also attributed to its strong partnerships with various stakeholders, including the Indonesian government, international partners, and civil society organizations.
