The @WHO Civil Society Commission is just beginning its work, to inspire stronger and deeper engagement of civil society across all levels of WHO. Thank u @DrTedros 4 your leadership & commitment to this agenda, and great to meet fellow steering committee members.

What an impressive speech from RD @WHO_Europe @hans_kluge on resilient governance for health, resilient health systems and resilient people. Highlighting trust, equity, #wellbeingeconomy among many.

Honoured to be in Astana for the International Primary Healthcare Conference. Five years since the #PHC declaration, #NCDs continue to pose a significant global challenge for PHC. Join me this afternoon as I discuss the political economy of PHC from an NCD perspective

Thrilled to have been a part of #WHS2023 and reunite with exceptional NCD advocates like @muthonimuturi. It was a great opportunity to connect and discuss key NCD response areas, such as our health workforce, #DigitalHealth and the involvement of people living with NCDs 🌍💪

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

👏New research in The Lancet makes the case for integrated management of diabetes, hypertension & HIV. It's a win-win opportunity to make #NCD care more accessible for people living with #HIV and cost-effectively strengthen our health systems. https://t.co/cgdub5a1TM

[NCD Alliance @ncdalliance]

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Zoleka Mandela - a great NCD champion, a true inspiration, and a symbol of strength and courage for millions of people living with NCDs. It was an honour to work with her. Our condolences to the family and friends

The WHO Foundation is glad that @Concordia has decided to exclude the tobacco industry from next week’s Concordia Live and ongoing membership.

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Thrilled to join global health allies at the @ConcordiaSummit this Wednesday as they cut ties with #BigTobacco. This industry causes widespread harm and has no place in discussions about health, development or the planet #UNGA78

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Exciting first days of the GW4A campaign! Thanks to everyone taking part👏
Your actions are helping to ensure quality care for people living with #NCDs. Universal Health Coverage (#UHC) is the key. More to come. Let's keep the pressure on! #ActOnNCDs

[NCD Alliance @ncdalliance]

According to Sir George, success requires:
✅the data to show NCD reductions
✅SIDS to speak as one voice, but needs a platform
✅more investment to resource the NCD response
✅make a whole-of-government/society approach become a reality

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Sir George Alleyne cites Martin Luther King's words, urging us to resist the 'tranquillising drug of gradualism'. The message for #SIDS Ministerial Conference on #NCDs and Mental Health is clear: Complacency in our health responses is no longer an option. #Moment4Caring

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Was very happy to meet Sir George Alleyne at the SIDS Ministerial Conference on #NCDs and mental health. Couldn't agree more with his remarks! Caring governments must consider the future consequences of their actions and #ActOnNCDs now 👏

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

I congratulate Small Island Developing States on a very comprehensive Bridgetown Declaration - a bold plan of action on health and the #ClimateCrisis. @WHO is committed to continue its support, including for mobilizing financial resources. https://t.co/4KfC6lS6Pr

Always great catching up with our @ncdalliance family, as @HealthCaribbean welcomes @katiedain1 to Barbados for the @WHO SIDS NCD meeting June 14th - 16th! Welcome to sunny and 🥵 Bridgetown!!

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

At #WHA76 two NCD Alliance events gathered global leaders and magnified the voices of people living with #NCDs. The vital message resonated loud and clear: NCD prevention and care must be included in Universal Health Coverage discussions. Follow @ncdalliance to learn more

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Busy week at #WHA76. Was very happy to speak with so many allies about #NCDs and Universal Health Coverage at our leadership session last weekend.
Very optimistic about bolstering NCD care & moving towards a world that promotes health, protects rights, and saves lives

[Katie Dain @katiedain1]

Thank you @worldheartfed & @Boehringer for the opportunity to reiterate the need to build health systems informed by the lived experience and inclusive of #NCDs. Covid has taught us to not be complacent. @DrTomFrieden @MikkelsenBente_
