Public HealthBuilding Public Health CoalitionsPartnership for Healthy Cities
PARTNERSHIP FOR HEALTHY CITIES
Each year, 45 million people die from noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) —
including cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory
diseases — and injuries. The majority of these deaths occur in low- and
middle-income countries. A major focus of Bloomberg Philanthropies’ public
health work is forestalling these unnecessary deaths and injuries.
Noncommunicable diseases account for 77% of deaths in low- and middle-income
countries, but only 2% of global health funding addresses them.
In 2017, as part of his role as the World Health Organization Global Ambassador
for Noncommunicable Diseases and Injuries, Mike Bloomberg launched the
Partnership for Healthy Cities, in partnership with the World Health
Organization and Vital Strategies. Cities are now home to over half of the
world’s population, and city leaders are uniquely positioned to drive policies
and programs to help transform public health.
The partnership brings together 74 cities that have agreed to implement at least
one proven policy to fight NCDs and injuries, increase awareness, and share best
practices. More than 300 million people in these cities are living healthier,
safer lives as a result of policies and programs supported through the
Partnership for Healthy Cities.
The annual Partnership for Healthy Cities Summit, held in London in 2023 and
Cape Town in 2024, convenes local leaders to discuss proven interventions to
prevent noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) and injuries, and the best practices
that save lives and create healthier cities.

74 CITIES COMMITTED TO THE PARTNERSHIP FOR HEALTHY CITIES
PROVEN INTERVENTIONS
The Partnership for Healthy Cities supports 14 proven health interventions to
prevent noncommunicable diseases and injuries:
1. Create a smoke-free city: Introduce, pass, and enforce legislation and
regulations to make all indoor public places, workplaces, and public
transport 100% smoke-free.
2. Ban tobacco advertising: Introduce, pass, and enforce legislation and
regulations establishing comprehensive bans on tobacco advertising,
promotion, and sponsorship, including a ban of display at the
point-of-sale.
3. Raise tobacco taxes and levies/fees: Increase excise taxes and prices on
tobacco; increase subnational tobacco tax revenue.
4. Tax sugary drinks: Adopt, implement, and enforce effective taxation of
sugary beverages.
5. Set nutrition standards for foods served and sold in public institutions:
Adopt, implement, and enforce nutrition standards in public settings (e.g.,
schools, hospitals, and childcare sites).
6. Regulate food and drink marketing: Adopt, implement, and enforce
restrictions on marketing sugary drinks and/or unhealthy foods.
7. Create healthier restaurant environments: Adopt, implement, and enforce
food-service policies (e.g., calorie labeling, sodium labeling, trans-fat
ban).
8. Reduce speeding: Enhance and/or enforce speed limit laws/regulations;
implement road designs that reduce speed and protect pedestrians.
9. Increase motorcycle helmet use: Enhance and/or enforce laws mandating
compulsory use of helmets while riding 2-wheelers.
10. Reduce drinking and driving: Enhance and/or enforce traffic laws related to
drinking and driving.
11. Increase seat belt use: Enhance and/or enforce laws mandating compulsory
seat-belt use.
12. Promote active mobility: Increase cycling via bike share programs and/or
street design; implement Safe Routes to Schools.
13. Prevent opioid-associated overdose deaths: Establish naloxone distribution
programs or establish community-based harm reduction services (e.g.,
syringe exchange, drop-in center).
14. Enhance public health data and monitoring systems: Conduct a
population-based survey of risk factors for NCDs and injuries; conduct
targeted air monitoring to identify important emissions sources and their
impact on ambient air quality and health.
