What are non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and how do they connect to mental health?

NCDs refer to a wide range of chronic diseases that are nontransmissible and often lifelong. This includes cardiovascular diseases, chronic respiratory diseases, diabetes, and cancers. Severe childhood-onset NCDs include sickle cell disease, type 1 diabetes, and childhood heart diseases.

Mental health and NCDs are deeply interconnected. Many mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety, are chronic conditions. Conversely, individuals with NCDs like diabetes or heart disease are at a significantly higher risk of experiencing mental health challenges.

UNICEF is committed to ensuring that children impacted by NCDs and mental health conditions receive the care and support they need.

➡️ The theme for World Su***de Prevention Day, 10 September, is “Changing the Narrative on Su***de.”

*It calls for:*

🔹 Encouraging open conversations
🔹 Reducing stigma
🔹 Building understanding

*If you or someone you know is feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, or having thoughts of self-harm:*

🫱🏼‍🫲🏾 Reach out to someone you trust or a mental health professional.

💬 Remember, you are not alone, and talking helps.

⚠️ If you see warning signs like mood changes or withdrawal, don’t ignore them.

🌍 Road traffic crashes kill 1.19 million people every year, and a further 20–50 million are left with life-altering injuries, according to UN data. The WHO has called this a “major public health and development crisis.”

The UN’s Decade of Action for Road Safety (2021–2030) aims to cut road traffic deaths and injuries by 50% by 2030—but achieving this requires more than safer roads. It requires prepared communities.

That’s where the STOP THE BLEED® Kenya Initiative comes in.

Every person we train represents a life that could be saved. Together, we can help Kenya—and the world—move closer to the 2030 target.
