Summary
Published June 2016.
The legal review in relation to Tuberculosis (TB) was conducted in Kyrgyzstan between December 2015 and March 2016. The review was informed by a desk research, stakeholders’ interviews, focus groups discussions with the people affected by TB, followed by a round table meeting with stakeholders. The conclusion is that the legal framework itself, consisting of the ratified international conventions and the national legislative documents, adequately respects, protects and fulfills the human rights of people affected by TB. However, many laws are either not or only partially implemented.
