4. Development dimension: Poverty contributes to NCDs and NCDs contribute to poverty

5. Where do we stand today? Paragraph 43. Remarkable progress has been made since September 2011. Many countries, including some of the poorest, have aligned their policies and resources with the nine global targets and the WHO Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of NCDs 2013-2020 to make unparalleled gains. Sizeable gains have occurred in even the poorest countries. Paragraph 44. However, progress has been insufficient and highly uneven. Bolder measures are urgent to accelerate efforts to address NCDs and mitigate their impacts. The political declaration has catalysed action and retains great power in engendering collective action for faster results.

Road map of commitments included in the 2011 UN Political Declaration on NCDs 2011 UN Political Declaration on NCDs Roadmap of concrete national commitments, including one time- bound commitment: By 2013, consider developing national multisectoral policies and plans 2014 UN Outcome Document on NCDs Reiterated the same roadmap of national commitments, including four time-bound commitments: By 2015, consider setting national targets for NCDs By 2015, consider developing national multisectoral policies and plans By 2016, implement best buys to reduce risk factors for NCDs By 2016, implement best buys to enable health systems to respond

16. Best buys Tobacco Reduce affordability of tobacco products by increasing tobacco excise taxes Create by law completely smoke-free environments in all indoor workplaces, public places and public transport Warn people of the dangers of tobacco and tobacco smoke through effective health warnings and mass media campaigns Ban all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship Harmful use of alcohol Regulate commercial and public availability of alcohol Restrict or ban alcohol advertising and promotions Use pricing policies such as excise tax increases on alcoholic beverages Which NCD policies and programmes best drive progress?

17. Best buys Diet and physical activity Reduce salt intake Replace trans fats with unsaturated fats Implement public awareness programmes on diet and physical activity Promote and protect breastfeeding

18. Which NCD policies and programmes best drive progress? Best buys Cardiovascular diseases and diabetes Drug therapy (including glycaemic control for diabetes mellitus and control of hypertension using a total risk approach) and counselling to individuals who have had a heart attack or stroke and to persons with high risk (≥30%) of a fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular event in the next 10 years Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) for acute myocardial infarction Cancer Prevention of liver cancer through hepatitis B immunization Prevention of cervical cancer through screening (visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) linked with timely treatment of pre-cancerous lesions

19.

23. The resource recession Significant additional investments are required to address NCDs in the post-2015 era: These need to rely on domestic public finance (the potential to increase taxation on tobacco and alcohol exists in many countries) Important role to improve the catalytic role of ODA to complement national NCD efforts Prevention must remain the cornerstone of any national response to NCDs Opportunity to integrate NCDs into existing fully-funded national public health programmes on unfinished business and UHC

24. NCD management remains important Management of NCDs will be critical to achieving the global target to reduce premature mortality from NCDs by 25% in 2025: Investment in health systems is critical for improving NCD outcomes Access to health technologies and essential medicines for NCDs has to be ensured Integrated programmes based on a total cardiovascular approach need to be strengthened in primary care (using hypertension, diabetes and other risk factors as an entry point) Global targets on coverage of people at risk for cardiovascular diseases and availability of essential medicines and technology can help to scale up NCD management

25. Target 3.4: By 2030, reduce by one third premature mortality from NCDs Target 3.5: Strengthen the prevention and treatment of substance abuse, including harmful use of alcohol Target 3.a Strengthen the implementation of the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control in all countries, as appropriate Target 3.b Support the research and development of vaccines and medicines for the communicable and NCDs that primarily affect developing countries Target 3.8: Achieve universal health coverage, including financial risk protection, access to quality essential health-care services and access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all Most relevant NCD targets included in the proposed SDGs 2015-2030
