The mandate to conduct a mid-point evaluation of the progress achieved in the implementation of the NCD-GAP derives from paragraph 1(1) of resolution WHA66.10 (2013) which endorsed the NCD-GAP. The purpose of the evaluation was to assess the accomplishments of the six objectives of the NCD-GAP as well as the lessons learned through implementation of the NCD-GAP in Member States, by international partners and non-State actors, and at the three levels of WHO. The evaluation report documents successes, challenges and gaps in the implementation of the NCD-GAP since 2013; provides lessons learned and recommendations to improve the implementation of the NCD-GAP until 2030; and provides inputs for the next WHO global status report on noncommunicable diseases, as well as other reports, including on contributions to reducing premature mortality from NCDs by promoting mental health, reducing air pollution and strengthening health systems. The executive summary of the evaluation report was presented to the 148th session of the Executive Board in January 2021.
