Next week world leaders will meet at #UNGA.
@WHO’s highlight will be the High-Level Meeting on Noncommunicable Diseases and Mental Health on 25 September.
Noncommunicable diseases include 7 of the world’s top 10 causes of death. In addition, almost 1 billion people face mental health conditions.
Countries that act decisively to #BeatNCDs will save millions of lives, protect families, cut health costs, and unlock economic growth.

Country leadership takes the lion share to achieve sustainable health financing, & universal health coverage. However, it is a responsibility of the global community to narrow the gaps. Transition from development assistance should be gradual & strategic. https://t.co/WPOT86SeMS

@tschrecker, Mark Padilla , @sridhartweet, and @mmatshilomotsei

Last week’s #HSR2024 Symposium in Nagasaki, was a great success! Our team from UNSW presented our collaborative work with the Fiji Ministry of Health Medical Services to revitalize the CHW program and strengthen the PHC system in Fiji. @chwcentral@UNSWMedicine@georgeinstitute
Expectations for researchers:
1️⃣ To be transparent about choices we make
2️⃣ To not be extractive - we are often trying to answer questions we have, not the learning needs of people
3️⃣ Research for people served
4️⃣ Transformation
