Collaborating in India to Prevent NCDs and Meet SDG#3

The session will begin with a TED style talk for 10 min, by Dr Nalini Saligram from Arogya World, on why collaboration is the need of the hour in the world’s quest to Build Back Better after COVID. How we should leverage the strengths and reach of different stakeholders to meet the SDGs.
Then we will have a discussion for 20 min on how the CoLive Health SubGroup in India is taking the diabetes prevention content from one NGO (Arogya World) and leveraging the frontline workers from 2 other organizations (ISHIP and Sri Sathya Sai Medical College) to mobilize >2000 villagers in Jharkhand and rural Karnataka (Chikbalapur) to receive proven messages on diabetes prevention (Arogya World’s mDiabetes program) for 6 months. And we will end with 45 min workshop with the Catalyst 2030 global community inviting others to join us in a brainstorming workshop session on how to make this sustainable and how to scale it up.
