Cities & Impact

Locally owned with global impact

Today, CARDIO4Cities is being replicated in many more cities around the world, with the aim to impact the heart health of 150 million people in 30 major cities by 2030. Each city adapts the approach to its own cardiovascular health priorities, health-system context and implementation capabilities.

Together, participating cities and partners are building a growing body of evidence, experience and practical learning on how to improve cardiovascular population health at city level.
