18 Global Response
19 Global Response - Stakeholders
20 Global Response - Financing The share of development assistance it for health lth ddi dedicated tdto NCDs has remained at 1 2% (US$ 492 million out of US$ 36 billion) of the total since This level of funding is insufficient to attain the nine targets in WHO Global Action Plan on NCDs.
21 Global Response - Financing From 2011 to 2025 it is estimated that NCDs will drain over US$ 50 trillion from the global economy. Fortunately, preventing NCDs is very cheap in comparison with the costs of inaction. i Scaling up the best buys from 5% to 80% coverage in all LMIC would cost U S$ 11.4 billion.

26 Africa s Response: Sluggish and Disjointed xpansion of national health surance to cover some NCD Ds evelopment of treatment uidelines and disease or risk ctor specific policies, programs r action plans. ome targeted laws and gulations e.g. SSB Tax in SA dustry interference.
27 Africa s Response: My subjective verdict
28 Africa s Response: An objective verdict ur findings suggest that Africa is off track in achieving the NCDs indicators by the set deadlines. To e sustained public health h gains, more effort and commitment is urgently needed d from governmen ners and societies to implement these recommendations in a broader strategy. While donors need uit NCD advocacy with funding, African institutions such as The African Union (AU) and other sub gional bodies such as West AfricanHealthOrgan nization (WAHO) and various country offices could potentially play stronger roles in advocating for more NCD policy efforts in Africa.
