Extended Description:
In line with the Global Charter on Meaningful Involvement of People Living with NCDs [1] and the WHO Framework for Meaningful Engagement [2], NCD Alliance's Walk the Talk webinar series highlights the importance of meaningful involvement of people living with NCDs. It also offers a platform to showcase progress, good practices and lessons learnt by a range of NCD stakeholders. According to WHO, sharing best practices enables “persons and organisations working in the health sector to avoid reinventing the wheel, to improve performance and avoid the mistakes of others.”
The second webinar, Operationalising Meaningful Involvement: Shifting the Balance of Power examined how to shift the power balance in NCD policies, programs and services to move away from top-down approaches and meaningfully involve people living with NCDs. The participants explored how to contextualise and embed meaningful involvement of people living with NCDs in organisational practices and processes, building on the Global Charter Strategies and enablers enshrined in the WHO Framework. Also, the webinar spotlighted examples of addressing power dynamics at different levels in different settings with the aim of inspiring similar strategies adapted to participants’ own contexts.
