Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) remain a major challenge for health systems and societies across Europe.
Join us on Friday, 13 November 2026, from 11:00 to 12:30 CET, for a webinar on “Investing in NCD Prevention: The Health, Economic and Social Case for Action in South-Eastern Europe”, co-organised by OECD, WHO/Europe and the South-Eastern Europe Health Network (SEEHN).
Drawing on the OECD report The Health and Economic Benefits of Tackling Non-Communicable Diseases, this webinar will explore how evidence on the health, economic and social benefits of prevention can inform policy and investment decisions across South-Eastern Europe.
Programme highlights:
OECD: Key findings from the OECD report, with a focus on evidence relevant to South-Eastern Europe.
WHO/Europe: A regional perspective on NCD prevention across SEEHN Member States, with Dr Ivo Rakovac.
SEEHN Member States: Reflections on national priorities, experiences and implementation challenges.
Regional discussion: Opportunities for regional co-operation across South-Eastern Europe.
Opening remarks will bring together representatives of OECD, WHO/Europe and the SEEHN Secretariat.
