Whereas non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, and
respiratory diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. And NCDs are often
preventable through lifestyle modifications, early detection, and access to healthcare services,
Whereas promoting public health and preventing diseases is a fundamental responsibility of governments to
ensure the well-being of their citizens,and proactive measures can significantly reduce the burden of NCDs on
healthcare systems and improve overall quality of life,
Be it resolved that the following proposal for the promotion and prevention of non-communicable diseases be
enacted into law:
● Reduce the incidence of NCDs by addressing modifiable risk factors through education, lifestyle
interventions, and early detection.
● Improve overall population health and well-being, leading to increased productivity, reduced
absenteeism, and enhanced quality of life.
● Alleviate the burden on healthcare systems by preventing costly NCD complications and
hospitalizations.
● Promote health equity by ensuring equitable access to preventive services, screenings, and essential
medicines for all individuals, regardless of socioeconomic status.
Advantages
● Public Health Improvement: Reducing the prevalence of NCDs leads to improved health outcomes,
reduced disability, and increased life expectancy.
● Economic Benefits: Prevention-focused interventions save healthcare costs, improve workforce
productivity, and stimulate economic growth.
● Sustainable Development: Healthy populations contribute to sustainable development goals by
fostering social inclusion, reducing inequalities, and promoting environmental sustainability.
● Long-term Health Security: Investing in NCD prevention and promotion builds resilient healthcare
systems capable of addressing future health challenges.
This resolution underscores the importance of prioritizing prevention and promoting healthy lifestyles to combat
the growing burden of non-communicable diseases. By enacting comprehensive policies and programs,
governments can empower individuals and communities to lead healthier lives and create a more resilient and
thriving society.
