From 1991 to the present, the European Union and the World Health Organization have been developing various strategies and objectives to end the global tuberculosis epidemic, the leading cause of global death from infectious diseases. Ethiopia is among the 30 countries with the highest global burden, being the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the country. In order to assess the status of the disease in Ethiopia and the implementation of the strategies created by the WHO, a study of the sustainable development objectives and the pillars of the "STOP TB" strategy is conducted through the use of scientific evidence. The results shown that in spite of the improvement with respect to the year 2000 and the notable decrease in incidence, Ethiopia does not meet the goals established for the correct implementation and continues with high levels of malnutrition and poverty, as well as contributing factors to the development of the tuberculosis. When evaluating the applicability in a rural area (Gambo Rural Hospital), it is correlated that, despite the lack of resources, there is a correct realization of the treatment through direct observation, the study of contacts and collaborative TB / HIV activities.
