Empowering Communities

In order to be successful, projects need to have strong local ownership and engagement. This means open collaboration and communication with local stakeholders at all stages of program development, execution and evaluation.

Dr. Eva Njenga speaking at the Access Accelerated event, “Building Solutions to Patient Challenges in Non-Communicable Diseases” in Nairobi, Kenya (2018)

Country Implementation

It doesn’t really matter what we say or do if we don’t involve the people we are discussing at the table.

Dr. Eva Njenga, NCD Alliance Kenya

Ensuring local ownership also ensures programs align with existing systems rather than being developed in isolation and allows us to include capacity-building components to empower local governments and partners.

 

With our partners, we’re working to support locally-defined priorities, empowering communities and people living with NCDs to be agents of change.

A Coordinated Effort with our Partners

  • Together we develop effective and sustainable ways to deliver cancer care in cities. The learnings and insights developed in C/Can’s Key Learning Cities can be applied to regional or national contexts and to other NCDs.

Turning the Tide

We believe people living with NCDs can be powerful agents for change. In Ghana, we partnered with NCD Alliance to meaningfully involve people living with NCDs in decision-making processes so that their perspectives can inform laws, policies, health care services and other systemic NCD decisions.
