We welcome the compelling message from First Lady Madam @sajidhaamohamed “Strong primary health care can not only save lives, but lead lives of better quality and happiness” as the Political Declaration on NCDs & Mental Health is adopted at the UN #HLM4
#LeadOnNCDs #ActOnNCDs
👏The First Lady of the Maldives, Madam Sajidha Mohamed, calls for strong leadership at #HLM4 — and beyond — for a healthier future for everyone.
🗨️"The upcoming 2025 UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs and Mental Health is a pivotal opportunity to show the world we care, through our commitment, compassion and leadership," says the First Lady. "Together we can build a healthier, stronger and more resilient Maldives. Let's act now for our children, families and our future."💪
⏰ It's time to #ActOnNCDs!

For individuals with disabilities, the simple act of attending an event or dining at a restaurant can be challenging. With @UNMaldives, we brought together UN-wide venue & catering service providers in Maldives to guide on making venues & services more accommodating for PWDs.
