WHO's Global Strategy to Reduce

reduce the harmful use of alcohol’ by the World Health Assembly.
❖ Most countries, particularly low- and middle-income countries, have

not implemented a comprehensive set of alcohol policies.
❖ Many countries are failing to implement the best buys, with lowand
middle-income countries more likely to have weaker policies.

❖ Unmet health needs
➢ While the world has seen tremendous health progress in recent years,
millions of people still don’t have access to the health technologies they
need to survive and thrive.
➢ Diseases affecting the world’s poorest people failed to attract the
attention and funding needed to develop new health technologies.
➢ Even when treatments are developed, they are often not available or
delivered at the country level, remaining out of reach for the people who need
them most.
