To ease difficulties, the INB piloted […] Continue reading -> Obesity, Climate, Reliance on Imported Foods: Small Islands’ Declaration Spells Out a Litany of Challenges 16/06/2023 Kerry Cullinan Overburdened by non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and threatened by climate change, health ministers of Small Islands Developing States (SIDS) met in Barbados over the past few days and adopted the Bridgetown Declaration on NCDs and Mental Health.
