       The NCD Alliance 1 aims to put non-communicable diseases (NCDs) on the global agenda to address the NCD crisis.
       Improving outcomes in morbidity and mortality by 2015 will clearly depend to a large extent on tackling the burden of NCDs,
       especially in developing countries.

       Paper on the non-communicable diseases, in view of the UN-High-Level Meeting in New York at the 19th of September forthcoming.
