WHO Western Pacific regional action plan for the prevention and control of NCDs (2014-2020)

Abstract

This is an excerpt of the "Western Pacific Regional Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases (2014-2020)" (RAP NCD) which has been endorsed by the Member States of the Western Pacific Region of World Health Organization (WHO) in October 2013. The Regional plan is fully harmonized with the Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases (2013-2020). The regional plan calls for a systematic approach to NCD prevention and control. The plan provides a road map and a menu of very cost-effective interventions for all Member States and other stakeholders, to take coordinated and coherent action at all levels to attain the nine voluntary global target by 2025. The original version of RAP NCD is downloadable from the website (http://www.wpro.who.int/noncommunicable_diseases/ WHO_NCD_RAP.pdf?ua=1). In addition, there are NCD tools in the WHO homepage (http://www.who.int/nmh/ncd-tools/en/).
