National Strategy and Costed Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases in Rwanda 2020-2025

This document combines Rwanda’s national strategy for NCDs, together with a costed action plan. The overarching goal of this plan is to reduce premature mortality from NCDs by 25 percent, by 2025. The actions that need to be taken to achieve this are organised in four strategic objectives: 1. Preventing NCDs through health promotion and reduction of risk factors 2. Strengthening health systems for quality NCD early detection, care and treatment at all levels 3. Strengthening disease surveillance and research, alongside robust monitoring and evaluation, for evidence-based intervention 4. Strengthening intersectoral coordination, advocacy and resource mobilisation for the prevention and control of NCDs
