Also in June 2018, leaders from the global health & development community co-authored a letter in @TheLancet calling for the #HLM3 #NCDs Political Declaration to address 8 key areas for bold outcomes #enoughNCDs #howNCDs @kentbuse @HelenClarkNZ https://t.co/VZLzOwDw75
Excellent lessons on 'the how' of local #sugartax implementation from #Philadephia on @EATforum @c40cities #FoodSystems Network webinar. All sweetened drinks covered (incl diet) to improve equity. >$100m revenue earmarked for parks & education! @PhilaRevenue #beatNCDs #howNCDs
Excellent commitment from @SaniaNishtar - now time to come together to support @WHO independent high level commission on #NCDs deliver bolder set of recommendations #HowNCDs
@ncdalliance @NCDFREE @un_ncd @WorldObesity @TheUnion_TBLH @BloombergDotOrg @IlonaKickbusch @PhilBakerNZ
Sania Nishtar on her second High-Level Commission on NCDs report: “We will be much bolder.”
Much needed welcome news on #NCDs front - Kudos to #Finland - Lets call on more countries to follow this approach and the #howNCDs agenda https://t.co/5NU0fZ4UEq
@MattilaPirkko @JoelRehnstrom @MartenRobert @ncdalliance @himmoderator
✅ Finland is on track to meet the 2025 targets for NCD mortality ✅
Fiscal policies, regulation and addressing *environmental* factors rather than focusing on individuals are all to credit!

#HLM3 #UNGA #EnoughNCDs
The Friends of the #HLM3 on #NCDs were unequivocal - without meaningful engagement of civil society in all facets of the NCD response, the global targets will not be unattainable #howNCDs https://t.co/5NU0fZ4UEq
@ncdalliance @jpacaba @NCDFREE @himmoderator
After all the fine words this week about the importance of civil society in #NCDs, not a single civil society rep was called upon 2 make an intervention from the floor at #HLM3 panel 1. Unacceptable. @ncdalliance
Great that @ncdalliance listening carefully to commitments made today by world leaders to tackle #NCDs - we need civil society to make more noise, to ramp up pressure incentivising leaders to make good on commitments #enoughNCDs #howNCDs
@NCDFREE @johanna_ralston @DrSenait
And so #HLM3 is upon us. We have been here b4, twice in fact. & we know progress has fallen short since those last HLMs. So over 2 u, our political leaders, 2 show civil society how u are taking responsibility & stepping up 2 urgently stem the tide. We are listening carefully.
Accountability across government crucial to promote health and prevent NCDs

ICYMI THE HOW: a proposed agenda for the @UN high-level meeting on non-communicable diseases from over 50 #globalhealth leaders #UNGA #UNHLM #EnoughNCDs #HowNCDs #NCDs #LancetNCDs https://t.co/1qZE2deQ81
Kudos to the Independent Accountability Panel for new report on private sector – solid, constructive, hard-hitting, evidence-informed recommendations. Should be mandatory reading for leaders at the #NCDs #HLM3 today #accountabilitymatters #howNCDs #EWECisME
Indeed James - historians will be intrigued to explain this period when perfect storm of apathy, vested interests & policy incoherence led to rapid increase in #NCDs - today at #HLM3 leaders have opportunity to change trajectory https://t.co/5NU0fZ4UEq #howNCDs

We support @DrTedros In #HowNCDs @TheLancet we join leading health & development experts calling on int. community to "removing subsidies 4 processed foods, alcohol & fossil fuels, & 4 divesting from tobacco, alcohol, & fossil fuels"

.@DrTedros commends countries where sovereign funds are tobacco-free such as France and NZ. “Why fight the tobacco industry with one hand and finance them with the other?”
Attending the #UNMGCY ‘Roundtable on NCDs and Primary Health Care: Road to Universal Health Coverage’ during #UNGA18 :) Keen to advocate for mental health to be an integral part of the NCD and PHC debate! #howNCDs #enoughNCDs
#HowNCDs 6) Support meaningful civil society engagement
https://t.co/N3XuIGFVgW
"support shoud be provided for meaningful civil society engagement. #Agenda2030 is premised on effective partnerships, including with civil society."
#EnoughNCDs
#HowNCDs 4) Regulate the commercial determinants
https://t.co/N3XuIGFVgW
" #CDOH should be more rigorously regulated. Evidence suggests that self–regulation cannot be relied on to deliver healthy outcomes."
#EnoughNCDs #BigAlcoholExposed #StopCorporateAbuse #BeatNCDs
#HowNCDs 2) Prioritise improving fiscal policies
https://t.co/N3XuIGFVgW
"Countries should implement a synergistic approach to taxing sugar, tobacco and alcohol, as well as unhealthy nutrients..."
#EnoughNCDs
#STAX
E.g. alcohol taxation reaps benefits across multiple #SDGs
