Press release
The Global Week for Action on NCDs is now underway, uniting the NCD movement worldwide under “Leadership in Focus: From Commitments to Delivery.”
Governments are urged to turn political pledges into sustainable financing, equitable access to care and measurable improvements in people's live. Join the campaign!
With smart investments, strong leadership, and people-centred policies, we can reduce preventable deaths, strengthen health systems, and create healthier, fairer societies.
Noncommunicable diseases — including heart disease, diabetes, cancer, mental health and respiratory conditions, as well as kidney, musculoskeletal, oral, eye and ear conditions, and many others — are the world’s leading causes of death and disability. But most are preventable or manageable.
Discover the evidence-based policy solutions that work, and how bold policies, smarter investment, and community leadership can save millions of lives.
Our network unites civil society, advocates, and people living with NCDs across diseases, risk factors, and geographies. We work with partners at every level — from local champions to global institutions — united by a vision of a healthier, more equitable world. Together, we drive change through bold advocacy, strong partnerships, and a shared commitment to equity.
“Living with chronic kidney disease has made me realise that advocacy isn’t just about policy – it’s about saving lives. Together, we can build systems that don’t leave people behind.”
