Access to sustainable NCD treatment and care
加速可持续发展目标的落实
背景信息
The Defeat-NCD Partnership is hosting a high-level panel discussion at the World Health Summit, which will bring Health Ministers from Rwanda and Myanmar together with multi-sectoral leaders from the African Union Commission, Boehringer Ingelheim, and the World Health Organization to reflect on practical solutions to bridge the trillion-dollar funding gap and find creative ways to bring about better health outcomes for NCDs.
活动目标
The workshop aims to provide a clear path to ‘build back better’ through COVID-19 response and recovery plans by highlighting corrective actions that can be taken to increase prevention and reduce underlying risk factors; identifying innovative structured financial products to support the mobilisation of funding; and charting a path to create a competitive and fair global market where low- and middle-income countries can access quality and fairer priced NCD drugs, diagnostics and medical devices, in order to achieve transformative universal health coverage for all.
