The NCDI Poverty Network is composed of expert committees termed “NCDI Poverty Commissions” or “NCDI Poverty Groups.” These NCDI Poverty Commissions catalyze national efforts to address NCDIs affecting the poorest and collaborate within and across regions to amplify global advocacy.
In addition to the NCDI Poverty Commissions composing the NCDI Poverty Network, partner organizations and institutions may also join as Member Institutions. Member Institutions may include research, clinical, educational, advocacy, and philanthropic organizations. Institutional membership requires approval by the NCDI Poverty Network Steering Committee and is administered by the NCDI Poverty Network Secretariat. Applicants will be asked to attest that they do not have any conflicts of interest with respect to the tobacco, alcohol, or arms industries, including funding, support, sponsorship, or influence. Member Institutions will be invited to participate in activities of the NCDI Poverty Network to achieve the stated objectives.
Individuals who work with eligible institutions may apply for membership either on behalf of their institutions or as individuals. Membership in the NCDI Poverty Network is free. Joining as a Member Institution provides an opportunity to be part of a growing community of National Commissions, stakeholder organizations, and advocates working together to advance the NCDI Poverty agenda. Membership will also grant you access to working group meetings, webinars, knowledge exchange opportunities, regular communications to and among Network members, and the Network’s annual conference. Please see the ratified NCDI Poverty Network Charter for more information about the Network and its governance.
