Promoting health through the life course means to invest in prevention and to provide treatment and care services whenever and for whoever necessary.

This WHA72 side event explores the realities of adolescence and youth as well as older age in relation to noncommunicable diseases risk factors.

IFA, IFMSA and IOGT International have put together an event that will explore commonalities to foster synergies in a life course approach to health promotion. 

The objective of this meeting is to inform decision-makers about cost-effective, high-impact, evidence-based solutions that are available to protect and promote the health of youth and older people.
