In this plenary symposium paper, the director of WHO's division of noncommunicable diseases reviews the steps taken to organize programmes for the prevention and control of these NCDs. The programmes are either disease oriented, e.g. cancer, hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, or factor oriented, e.g. nutritional, anti-tobacco, anti-alcohol. Special attention is paid to the determination of risk factors in a given disease, to the construction of programme models and their initial field testing, and to the recruitment of other international organizations, laboratories and scientists in the drive against NCDs.
