12: Nichtübertragbare Krankheiten – wie man sie kontrolliert und verhindert (Teil der Alpbach Learning Missions)
Kuratiert mit MCI Management Center Innsbruck; unterstützt von Stiftung Mercator und Stiftung Mercator Schweiz
Die sogenannten nichtübertragbaren Krankheiten oder NCDs (noncommunicabel diseases, z.B. Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen, Krebs, chronische Atemwegserkrankungen und Diabetes) sind zu einer globalen Epidemie geworden. 41 Millionen Todesfälle pro Jahr belasten die Gesundheitssysteme in armen wie reichen Nationen massiv. Die Alpbach Learning Mission wird sich auf Gesetze, Regulierungen und die Einbindung des Privatsektors konzentrieren, um NCDs zu verhindern und einzudämmen; dabei sind interdisziplinäre und vielfältige Ansätze vorgesehen.
Dieses Seminar wird nach der Seminarwoche als Alpbach Learning Mission (ALM) fortgeführt.
