Description

Only a few countries are on track to meet Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3.4 to reduce NCD premature mortality (between the ages of 30 and 70) by one third by 2030. The WHO Global NCD Action Plan calls for adequate, predictable, sustained, efficient, and equitable financing for NCDs. Appropriate data that measures NCD spending are integral to achieving this vision. This report analyses publicly available information on public spending for NCDs, summarises what data is available and identifies data gaps to increase the awareness of NCD funding for policymakers.
