Closing the gap in research and adapting evidence-based interventions to understand how to implement and improve programme and service delivery is a complex challenge, but an absolute necessity to achieve the SDGs. SDG target 3.4 commits countries to reduce premature mortality from NCDs by a third by 2030 (relative to 2015 levels).
