IS4NCDs stands for “Capacity Building in Implementation Science Education for Non-Communicable Disease Prevention and Management in Africa.” It is a groundbreaking project aimed at tackling the growing burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Africa.

Day 4 of the IS4NCDs Regional Consortium Meeting covered project administration, pilot scheduling, publication planning, and the development of an evaluation framework.

The third day of the IS4NCDs Regional Consortium Meeting in Johannesburg moved from decisions to design — unpacking three advanced modules, an executive course for senior leaders, a digital learning platform, and the pedagogical principles that will bring it all to life.

On day 2 of the IS4NCDs Regional Consortium Meeting held in Johannesburg, consortium members presented and discussed an Implementation Roadmap covering three new intermediate training modules designed to equip health workers, researchers, and programme implementers with the practical skills needed to improve NCD outcomes at scale.

Day 2 focused on two major areas: the operational and structural decisions needed to move the modules from design to delivery, and a deeper exploration of the content and frameworks underpinning the core modules.
