About STPI

Stop TB Partnership Indonesia (STPI), formally known as Yayasan Kemitraan Tuberculosis Indonesia, has been at the forefront of civil society efforts to accelerate TB elimination in Indonesia since 2018. Over the years, STPI has established itself as a key partner to the Government of Indonesia, bringing together communities, civil society, and stakeholders to strengthen the national TB response. Drawing on its extensive experience, reach, and technical expertise, STPI has earned the trust of partners as a driving force in Indonesia’s TB response.

Project Background

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the most pressing public health challenges in Indonesia. In 2024, it was estimated that there were 1,092,000 TB cases in the country, of which 856,420 people were notified, including 12,128 people with drug-resistant TB (DR-TB). Despite progress in case notification, significant gaps remain in treatment coverage and enrollment. For example, among DR-TB cases notified, only 9,573 patients were enrolled in treatment. Treatment success rates also show disparities, with some areas recording success rates of 85% for drug-susceptible TB (DS-TB) and only 59% for DR-TB. Additionally, the initiation of TB preventive therapy (TPT) remains alarmingly low—19.4% in 2024.

Over the years, Indonesia has received substantial support from various partners, including the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), to strengthen TB case finding, improve treatment services, mobilise community engagement, and foster multi-sectoral collaboration. However, with the cessation of USAID’s TB program funding, several life-saving interventions are now facing critical support gaps, threatening the continuity and quality of TB services in high-burden areas.

The Life-saving Facility and Community-based Service Delivery Support for Tuberculosis (FCSDS) Project has been designed to address these urgent needs. This initiative aims to improve access to high-quality TB services, including timely diagnosis, effective treatment, and TPT provision, with a special focus on provinces and districts that are currently experiencing the most significant challenges in maintaining TB service continuity. The Stop TB Partnership in Indonesia will lead the implementation. Through close collaboration with government health services, civil society, and community actors, the project will strengthen both facility-based and community-based TB service delivery. Activities will include enhancing early case detection, improving treatment initiation and adherence, expanding TPT coverage, and ensuring patient support throughout the treatment journey. By bridging service delivery gaps and safeguarding essential interventions, the FCSDS TB Project seeks to save lives, reduce TB transmission, and protect vulnerable communities from the ongoing TB epidemic in Indonesia.
