The Case for Investment in Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases and Mental Disorders in Suriname: A return-on-investment analysis
Abstract
This report presents the results of the investment case for prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) and mental health in Suriname, and develops evidence and guidance to support the financing and implementation of national multisectoral NCDs prevention, control strategies, and treatment of mental health conditions. The study estimates the return on investment from implementing or scaling up priority interventions to reduce specific NCDs and mental health conditions, and also evaluates the political feasibility of putting these interventions into practice.
