Résumé :
|
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) account for 75% of the total mortality in Belarus, and pose a threat to the social and economic development of the country. This calls for swift policy actions that are aligned with regional and global mandates. Internationally agreed upon approaches to tackling the NCD burden call for multisectoral action. Through coordinated country support by WHO and the conduct of two assessment missions by international agencies in 2014, the attention of the Government of Belarus and non-health sectors was drawn to the existing burden of NCDs. The activities undertaken by these organizations created a momentum for change in Belarus, and helped in developing the multisectoral National Programme on the Prevention and Control of NCDs. These activities and processes also influenced the introduction of NCDs in the United Nations (UN) Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF), in which NCDs were defined as one of the priority areas for the work of the entire UN team in Belarus. A retrospective exercise of the processes and outputs of coordinated, intensified support for Belarus in 2014 uses a modification of the Kingdon model of policy formulation. It also conceptualizes the possible pathways of translating this approach to other countries
