Perceived benefits of community-based TB preventive treatment in children in Uganda
Tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) uptake among children at risk for TB remains low in sub-Saharan Africa.

In this qualitative study, we assessed community and health care provider perspectives on the anticipated benefits and barriers of a c…
Piloting a low-cost hardware intervention to reduce improper disposal of solid waste in communal toilets in low-income settlements in Dhaka, Bangladesh

Using a discursive psychological approach to analyze interview data, this study examined how teachers account for their provision as inclusive.…
