Executive Summary:English | español
Abstract:The Strategy is comprehensive, requiring a combination of interventions for the population and individuals. It is integrated, spanning prevention and control strategies focusing on the major chronic diseases and cross-cutting risk factors (especially physical activity, tobacco, and alcohol). Finally, it is intersectoral, because most of the major determinants of the chronic disease burden lie outside the health sector.
