  1. CARMEN Policy Observatory Meeting (Montreal, Quebec, Canada, March 2005) Content and Products of the NCD Observatory

  2. What is the NCD Policy Observatory? • Comprises a network of countries and institutions supporting a Knowledge Development & Dissemination systembased on • Monitoring and analysis of: • NCD-related • Public policies • Legislation/Regulations • International health policies

  3. Goals of the NCD Policy Observatory • To support the development of effective integrated NCD prevention policies through: • the systematic analysis of the processes involved in formulation, adoption and implementation of such policies; and • linking this analysis to the evaluation of programs and interventions established through these policies.

  4. Goals of the NCD Policy Observatory • To strengthen multi-sectoral collaboration in the formulation and adoption of specific and complementary policies that maximize NCD prevention. • To place NCD prevention higher on the agenda of policy makers.

  5. Knowledge Development Agenda Reports and Technical Documents Data compiled by individual country, selected countries, or by Region • Themes (generic) • Case examples of policy and implementation issues and challenges

  6. Themes • General • “Making the Case for NCD Prevention Policy and Action” • “Investment & Targeted Allocation of Funds for Prevention & Promotion” • “Partnership Development & Integration” • “Impact on organizational and system capacity” • “Impact on Population Health” • “Impact of international collaboration on domestic policy” • “Impact on selected major risk factors for NCD” • “Impact on high-risk or disadvantaged populations” • Process • Facilitators and barriers to formulation and implementation

  7. Case Examples of Policy & Implementation Issues and Challenges • Canada(examples) • “Canadian Healthy Living Strategy” • “Nutrition Labelling Policy in Canada” • “Establishing School Health Policy in Canada” • “Alberta Healthy Living Program” • “Quebec Public Health Legislation” • “New Federal Deal for Canadian Cities” • “Canadian Diabetes Strategy”, • “Childhood poverty in Canada – linked to food insecurity” • “Physical inactivity at the municipal level, urban planning and development,” • “Mental illness and co-morbidities”

  8. Case Examples of Policy & Implementation Issues and Challenges • Brazil • “National Food and Nutrition Policy” • “Brazilian Tobacco control Policy” • Costa Rica • “Creation of Ministry of Health & Sports”

  9. Criteria for selecting and prioritizing case examples • Relevance • Consistent with national/provincial NCD objectives • Address prevailing political and public issues • Reflect epidemiological “picture” for NCD in the country/province • Address at least one major NCD risk factor (e.g. tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating) • Scope • Multisectoral (civil society, industry, government etc.) and multi-level ( local, regional, P/T & federal) support & collaboration

  10. Criteria for selecting and prioritizing case examples • Feasibility • Size, complexity, budget, analyzable • Potential Impact or Benefit - On accountability and decision-making - On users of policy-related information - On the profile of issue - On population health
