INTRODUCING THE NEW

 


When it comes to addressing non-communicable diseases (NCDs), the needs of children, adolescents and young people are often overlooked. That is why NCD Child, in partnership with the Centre for Global Child Health, at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), is excited to introduce the new NCD Child Global Advocacy Course.

 


ABOUT THE COURSE

 

The NCD Child Global Advocacy Course is an open-access, online course that aims to increase knowledge about the most pressing NCD priorities in children, adolescents and young people. The course also helps equip those that are interested in NCD advocacy to take their knowledge and skills to the next level.

 


COURSE MODULES

 

MODULE 1: The Global Youth NCD Landscape

MODULE 2: Major NCDS and Risk Factors

 

MODULE 3: Effective Strategies to Address NCDs

MODULE 4: Becoming an Effective NCD Advocate

 



WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

 

This comprehensive advocacy course is for all those interested in the health and well-being of children, adolescents and young people, including but not limited to:

  • Young people with basic working knowledge of advocacy
  • Healthcare and public health professionals
  • Policy makers
  • Representatives from governments, civil society organizations and the private sector

 

 


We would like to thank our course development team, partners and subject matter experts who contributed to the review and development of the NCD Child Global Advocacy Course.
