In this special edition of Access Today, we bring you highlights from the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, including the fourth UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs and Mental Health. Dive into discussions on country-led action, sustainable financing, and turning political commitments into measurable impact. Full recordings of several sessions co-hosted by Access Accelerated are available to explore these conversations in depth.

This issue also features a new op-ed by Access Accelerated Executive Committee members on advancing equity in health financing for NCDs, and a spotlight on FAN’s first Sub-Saharan Africa Learning Workshop, where countries across the network came together to exchange learnings and shape a learning agenda and action plan for the coming year.

Also, join us on October 23 for a webinar, where Herb Riband and leaders will reflect on key takeaways from UNGA and explore how philanthropy and global health actors can work together to accelerate progress on brain health and NCDs.
