Welcome to MUKIKUTE
About Us
Mukikute was the first patient-led TB organization in Tanzania, founded in Dar es Salaam in 2005.
The name stands for Mapambano ya Kifua Kikuu na UKIMWI Temeke, which means The Fight against TB and AIDS in Temeke. Temeke is the district where the organization originally started its work.
Since then, Mukikute has expanded its activities to other parts of the country, including through its collaboration with the National TB Program.
The organization currently works in all districts of Dar es Salaam, as well as in several other regions across Tanzania.
