Infographic titled "What can be done to address oxygen access for NCDs in LMIC?" with three sections. On the left, "Prioritization of oxygen as part of policies and funding," includes bullet points about aligning with national health goals and ensuring equitable access through investments. In the middle, "Thoughtful use of oxygen at health facilities and at home," highlighting the maintenance of a mix of sustainable power sources and guidelines for patient-centric care. On the right, "Stronger data systems for informed decision-making," advocates for more complete data on chronic respiratory diseases and emphasizes the use of high-quality data for cost-effectiveness. Icons include a globe, a home, and a data dashboard.
Donors and other global partners at today's #UNGA80 HLM on NCDs have a role to play in supporting LMICs to improve access to high-quality oxygen therapy and reduce the overall burden from chronic respiratory diseases.
