High blood pressure is the world’s leading killer, causing more deaths than all infectious diseases combined. But it doesn’t have to be.
Evidence shows that progress is achievable with the right policies and investments.
Our new Global Call to Action to Control High Blood Pressure aims to demonstrate the breadth of support for this important issue and hold decision makers accountable.
The call to action urges governments, funders and the private sector to commit to proven actions to increase the global hypertension control rate to 50% by 2030, and will serve as a powerful advocacy tool at international forums including the World Health Assembly and UN General Assembly.
