WHO Global Coordination Mechanism on NCDs

The WHO Global Coordination Mechanism on Noncommunicable Diseases (GCM on NCDs) is a platform that brings together countries, organizations, and experts to work collaboratively on preventing and controlling diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and respiratory illnesses. Its goal is to share knowledge, coordinate efforts, and develop strategies to reduce the global impact of NCDs. By fostering cooperation, GCM helps ensure that countries can implement effective policies, promote healthier lifestyles, and improve health systems to tackle these widespread health issues more effectively.
