GROW Model: Non-Communicable Diseases | Understanding and Combating Non-Communicable Diseases

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and hypertension that do not spread from person to person but are responsible for the majority of global deaths. Many are linked
to lifestyle choices and are largely preventable. They place a heavy burden on individuals, families, and healthcare systems. Tackling NCDs requires awareness, prevention, effective management, and collective action from individuals, communities, and policymakers.
