The method of community service activities in the form of education is an effort to provide an understanding of tuberculosis and its treatment, as well as good and correct phlegm management. The service results showed an increase in community knowledge regarding TB, including symptoms, how it was transmitted, preventive measures, and good and correct cough management. There was an increase in community knowledge where the pre-test results of 57.14 increased to 90.77 in the post-test. Collaboration between academics, village governments, NGOs, and community leaders as well as posbindu cadres is the key to the success of the government's program to eliminate TB in 2030.
