Take Action • Global Week for Action on NCDs

Get involved with this year’s theme, Time to Lead! With the 2025 fourth High-level meeting of the UN General Assembly on the prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases and the promotion of mental health and well-being approaching, it’s time to move from words to action. Together we can spark the necessary change for NCDs. It’s time to lead. The Global Week for Action offers opportunities for everyone to play a leadership role, lasting from two minutes to one month.

There are many ways that you can get involved and be an agent for change, from retweeting a message to hosting an event. Let's get started!
