Leading research collaborations on chronic diseases

Menu

Our strategy

The overall goal of the Global Alliance for Chronic Diseases is to tackle the burden of chronic non-communicable diseases in low- and middle-income countries, by systematically building the evidence base for sound policymaking, as guided by global experts on NCDs.

The initial strategic programme will be directed at:

1. Coordination - To build increasing levels of research collaboration across the member agencies.

2. Awareness - To create a platform for general awareness raising and to conduct outreach beyond the original founding members.

3. Capacity-building - To develop and maintain global knowledge-sharing platforms in the conduct and management of chronic non-communicable diseases research in low- and middle-income countries.

The GACD's full strategic plan 2013-2018 can be found here.
