Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the major causes of death in Mexico and other countries around the world. People living in rural areas are most at risk, due to a lack of medical technology and health care workers with the right training. A new video produced for ACC – in partnership with NCD Alliance, World Heart Federation, and Viatris Inc. – by BBC StoryWorks unpacks how the new NCD Academy is helping doctors all over the country give their communities the support they need.

Watch the video in the languages below:

NCD Academy is a first-of-its-kind, online collaboration between the ACC and major actors in global health, equipping frontline health workers with integrated, mobile-first education on NCD care as they take on a more prominent role in prevention.
