WHO European non-communicable disease dashboard (January 2022)

Summary

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) including cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease and diabetes, are leading causes of morbidity, disability and mortality in the WHO European Region, causing nearly 90% of all deaths and 67% of premature deaths.

The World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe has released the WHO Europe NCD Dashboard, which provides graphical data on NCDs in the 53 Member States of the Region and makes comparisons between them. The dashboard enables analysis of a country’s health situation and its progress towards meeting NCD health targets. It includes standardised data from national and international registries and surveys collected by countries, WHO and other international organisations
