More about the contribution
The intervention concerns core support to NCD Alliance (NCDA) for operations covering the period August 2020 – December 2024. The amount for the contribution is 21,600,000 SEK. NCD Alliance (NCDA) is a unique global civil society network that unites international, regional and national civil society organisations, alliances and networks dedicated to improving non-communicable disease (NCD) prevention and control worldwide. Through its member alliances, it has developed a network of over 2,000 civil society organisations in 170 countries working towards the NCD agenda. NCDA is considered a global thought leader, and a civil society voice, on NCD policy and practice. It works to elevate the NCDs onto the global health and development agenda and also to bridge the gap and translate global commitments to the ground at the national level. It does this through its own organisation as well as its members by leading and coordinating advocacy towards political processes at all levels and promoting accountability and knowledge exchange. It also leads a variety of initiatives and in-depth programmes to develop civil society capacity in low- and middle income countries (LMICs) to deliver progress on NCD prevention and control at the international, regional and national levels. NCDA is seated in Geneva, Switzerland. It consists of 108 member alliances, networks and organisations representing a wide range of diseases, risk factors and thematic priorities across the NCD spectrum (including mental illness and air pollution). NCDA has four founding members, each representing one of the main four types of NCDs. The founding members are: The International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union), the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), the World Heart Federation (WHF) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). NCDA has requested organisational support from Sida to operationalise its strategy over the next three years. NCDA will utilize Sida support to expand its advocacy and prevention work, expand its capacity development programmes and strengthen its organisational development and effectiveness. NCDA has submitted its Strategic Plan (SP), Budget and Results Framework for 2016 – 2020. NCDA is currently developing its new strategic plan for 2021- 2028 and have conveyed that it does not expect significant strategic changes.

Result
Sida and NCDA entered into a three-year partnership in 2020 to support the response to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Results that NCD Alliance has contributed to during 2023: Prevention: - Bridgetown Declaration aiming to reduce NCDs in Small Island Developing States (SIDS), that face a disproportionately high burden from NCDs - A law entered into force in Mexico September limiting industrially-produced trans fatty acids (iTFAs) to a maximum of 2% of total fat - A civil society guide to advance NCD prevention policies, unpacking WHOs Best Buys and other recommended interventions - A policy brief on lessons and recommendations to advance labelling policy across risk factors for non-communicable diseases -Advocacy for climate health and sustainable food system. NCDA gave input into and supported the Healthy Climate Networks policy brief Diverse, healthy diets for all: How a focus on healthy diets can transform food systems and climate action. Care: - The positive outcome from the HLM on UHC that key components that define UHC remain intact. There was more recognition of NCDs and mental health being integral to UHC compared to four years ago at the first HLM on UHC. - The Global Week for Action focused on bridging the NCD care gap, reaching the highest engagement ever with two million social media post views. - After years of advocacy by the Tanzania NCD Alliance (TANCDA) and national civil society, the countrys Universal Health Insurance bill was signed into law - After examining 28 HIV-NCD programmes in 16 countries in Africa and Asia, the Spending wisely report presented evidence that integrated services can deliver wider health impact than standalone care, saving resources for health systems and patients. - The Paying the price report provides a thorough analysis of the economic burden of NCDs on households and the mechanisms to reduce out of pocket expenditures. Financing: - NCDA, together with the UNDP, aim to support the use of health taxes by publishing a case study on the Philippines, where taxes on tobacco and alcohol have generated billions of dollars since they were first implemented in 2012. Community engagement: - Global Week for Action on NCDs had 583 participants in person and virtually - The first regional Advocacy Agenda of People Living with NCDs in Africa was launched in September - Indias 2023-2030 National Programme on NCDs was approved, after extensive advocacy by the Healthy India Alliance - WHO launched the Framework for Meaningful Engagement of People Living with NCDs and Mental Health and Neurological Conditions with input from NCD Alliance By the end of 2023 NCDA had a network of 72 national and regional NCD alliances, 425 (402 end of 2022) member organisations in over 60 countries.
The ultimate objective is to achieve a world where everyone has the opportunity for a healthy life, free from the preventable suffering, stigma, disability and death caused by non-communicable diseases. It does this by working to unite and strengthen civil society to stimulate collaborative advocacy, action and accountability for the prevention and control of NCDs. The objectives and outcomes are: i) Integrate NCDs as a priority in global, regional and national health and development planning and implementation ii) Mobilise adequate and sustainable financial and human resources for NCD prevention and control at all levels iii) Improve the capacity and sustainability of national and regional CSO alliances and networks to effectively influence NCD prevention and control policies. In addition to the above, NCDA also works towards the objectives set in the WHO Global NCD Action Plan 2013 – 2020 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, namely: - By 2025, reduce by 25% overall premature mortality from NCDs. - By 2030, reduce by 33% overall premature mortality from NCDs and promote mental health and well-being.
