Reducing deaths of mothers and children has been a longstanding priority for Mexico. But new research shows that non-communicable diseases require urgent attention in the country in order to meet its commitment to the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
In this lecture, Dr. Jaime Sepulveda, executive director of global health sciences at the University of California, San Francisco, addresses how Mexico may need to allocate new resources — or reallocate existing ones — for these conditions to have an impact on overall mortality and life expectancy.
