Correction on: Dlatu N, Tsuro U, Faye LM, Hosu MC, Walter Sisulu University TB Research Group Medical Microbiology 2025 Honours Students, Ncomeka S and Apalata T (2025) Toward community-driven tuberculosis education: findings from a knowledge and engagement pilot survey in the rural community of Eastern Cape, South Africa. Front. Public Health. 13:1671871. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2025.1671871 The title of this article was erroneously given as: "Toward community-driven tuberculosis education: findings from a knowledge and engagement pilot survey in the rural community of Eastern Cape, South Africa" The correct title of the article is "Towards community-driven tuberculosis education: findings from a knowledge and engagement pilot survey in the rural community of Eastern Cape, South Africa"The Author Contributions Statement has been corrected to include the full initials for authors Lindiwe Modest Faye and Mojisola Clara Hosu. They are now written as "LMF" and "MCH". The original version of this article has been updated.The collaborators in the Walter Sisulu University TB Research Group Medical Microbiology 2025 Honours Students were not listed in an end statement. A correction has been made to include their names in an end statement as follows: Luzuko Mkono, Bulela Sonka, Londiwe Nxumalo, Mbulelo Cebisa, Phumelela Bana, Luvo Ntombana, Yanga Somjobo, Nande Ndamase, Siphosihle Conham, Sithabile Moso, Mandlenkosi Manika, Muziwabantu Joyi, Hloniphani Guma. We also pick that Professor Teke Apalata initials are written as P instead of T. Apalata. So the correct initials are Apalata T. Not Apalata P. The original version of this article has been updated.

Keywords: barriers to testing, Eastern cape, Health Education, KAP survey, Rural South Africa, stigma, TB knowledge, tuberculosis (TB)
