This policy research report was commissioned to The George Institute for Global Health by the NCD Alliance, with support from the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. We would like to thank Kent Buse, David Peiris, Emma Feeny from The George Institute and Estefania Palomino and James Reid from the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust for their support and guidance.
Through analyses of data from an online survey, interviews, and a targeted literature review, this report brokers knowledge by showcasing examples of where global health financing mechanisms have supported the provision of cost-effective NCD prevention and care services, and in so doing, supported progress towards UHC. It demonstrates that there are ways to effectively support NCD service provision through global health programming and that these will differ in different contexts.
