NCD Hard Talks Webinar: Harnessing the power of facility data to achieve global NCD targets: Presentation slides

Overview

Each year, noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) take the lives of 41 million people, most of them belonging in low- and middle-income countries. More than a third of these deaths due to NCDs happen prematurely between the ages of 30 and 69 years. Only 14 countries are on track to achieving Sustainable Development Goal on NCDs, SDG 3.4 target to reduce by one third premature mortality from noncommunicable diseases by 2030. Coordinated and strategic actions are needed to deliver the global promise.
