		<description><![CDATA[The Stop TB Partnership has issued a Call to Action on Childhood TB.  The call was an outcome of an international meeting organized jointly by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the Stop TB Partnership's Childhood TB Subgroup in March.  There was strong consensus among participants on the urgent need to make the voice of children heard through concerted advocacy efforts.  Links are provided to information on the Call to Action and to a page where you can sign the Call to Action on Childhood TB.  There are also links to previous coverage by the WGND on topics related to Childhood TB.  ]]></description>
