Non-communicable diseases (or NCDs) account for nearly two-thirds of the world’s total mortality and morbidity, led by ischaemic heart disease, stroke and diabetes, according to the latest Global Burden of Disease (GBD) report. Globally in 2021, 18 million people died from an NCD before age 70 years. From the period 2021-23, NCDs were responsible for about 56.7 percent of all deaths in India. To help unpack some of the economic impacts of NCDs, particularly the high out-of-pocket expenditures it incurs, Kripa Koshy (Staff Programme Manager, Takshashila) is joined by Merlyn Paul, a PGP graduate and co-founder of Samaagrith, a consulting organisation that aims to make the social impact journey easier.
