Background

Fifth meeting of the Regional Directors Advisory Council on Innovation for Noncommunicable Diseases

This meeting brings councillors from the Regional Directors Advisory Council on Innovation for Noncommunicable Diseases (NCDAC) together with EUPHA representatives to explore ways of best leveraging one another’s capacities to control and prevent NCDs in line with the NCDAC roadmap and its' six Signature Initiatives (SI) and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) commitments on noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). A joint plan with commitments to move the agenda forward will be developed between the Councillors, EUPHA sections and SI leads. Finally, we will outline EUPHA’s potential contribution on the path towards the fourth High Level Meeting of the United Nations General Assembly on the prevention and control of NCDs in 2025 with a specific focus on Europe’s role in delivering this.
