NCDs are a major financial strain on families worldwide. Sustainable financing solutions are crucial to mitigate this burden.

In a recent conversation with Access Accelerated, Dr. Elizabeth Wangia, Director of NCD Financing at the Ministry of Health, Kenya, emphasized the importance of protecting patients and their families from financial hardship. To ensure the successful implementation of NCD financing policies, Dr. Wangia calls for greater technical assistance, partnerships, and cross-country exchange.

“Let us know what other people are doing and let us share what we are doing, because when we share, we get more insights also and make ourselves better.”

Access Accelerated and its partners are dedicated to providing technical and financial support to foster evidence-based practices, cross-country learning, and collaboration to promote sustainable NCD financing in low- and middle-income countries.
