Countdown to the UNHLM

The 4th UN High Level Meeting on NCDs (HLM4) will take place 24 September 2025 in New York at the 80th United Nations General Assembly. Heads of States and Government will set a new vision to prevent and control NCDs towards 2030 and 2050 through a political declaration to be decided in the UN General Assembly. The Fourth High-level Meeting of the United Nations General Assembly (HLM4) provides a unique opportunity to adopt a new, ambitious and achievable political declaration on NCDs towards 2050.

HCC-led Advocacy Priorities for HLM4

The HCC-led Caribbean Advocacy Priorities were developed with emphasis on the importance of identifying a set of regional priorities around which CARICOM missions and negotiators can promote at the HLM4; civil society and key advocacy partners can mobilise; and governments and key implementing partners can embrace – as all stakeholders work to accelerate progress to agreed priority NCD prevention and control objectives in CARICOM Member States. They take into consideration the WHO Best Buys and Other Recommended Interventions and CARICOM regional platforms and mandates, reflect and support the global NCDA advocacy priorities, and are further informed by key factors and realities within the Caribbean context.

The Healthy Caribbean Coalition, in collaboration with the NCD Alliance (NCDA), key stakeholders, and partners, has led a process to develop advocacy priorities to inform Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Member States’ advocacy at, and contribution to, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly Fourth High-level Meeting on the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases (HLM4), scheduled for 25 September 2025 with the overall theme “Equity and Integration: Transforming lives and livelihoods through leadership and action on noncommunicable diseases and mental health”.
