| Global Response |
Progress in 2003 |
Example |
|
|
||
| Global advocacy |
"What there is tends to be fragmented and risk-factor or disease specific" |
|
| Partnerships and interactions |
"If widely implemented, changes [especially in food industry] could harness the benefits of globalization and promote health" |
WHO Strategy for Diet and Physical Activity, some progress with food (Kraft) and alcohol industry |
| Capacity and resources |
"national capacity for non-communicable disease prevention and control is weak and the institutional response to capacity development has not kept pace with epidemiological transition" |
NIH and Fogarty International Center |
| Global norms and standards |
"increasing need to establish global norms...treaties are not the solution to the complex issues related to nutrition transition or physical inactivity. Multistakeholder and intergovernmental mechanisms and other non-binding measures are better options, especially in relation to children" |
FCTC |
| Reorientation of health services |
Prevention, treatment and palliative care not implemented in most countries; focus on acute care |
