The "unseen and undiagnosed" are at risk. We will examine the lack of awareness and explore solutions to close gaps in NCD diagnosis.
About this Event

While Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) pose a major global health challenge, significant gaps exist in diagnosis, particularly for women and those with congenital conditions. Many NCDs, often termed "forgotten," are overlooked in national strategies. Additionally, low public awareness delays critical interventions. This event aims to illuminate these invisible burdens faced by women and those with congenital conditions, advocate for equitable diagnosis, and explore innovative solutions for a more inclusive global NCD response.
