Abstract

This proposed scientific statement is focused on providing new insights regarding challenges and opportunities for cardiovascular health (CVH) promotion in Africa. The statement includes an overview of the current state of CVH in Africa, with a particular interest in the cardiometabolic risk factors and their evaluation through metrics. The statement also explains the main principles of primordial prevention, its relevance in reducing noncommunicable disease and the different strategies that have been effective worldwide. Also, the statement addresses challenges for implementing primordial prevention strategies in Africa, such as socioeconomic, cultural, lifestyle, and environmental factors, and highlights the importance of adapting strategies to the context. Finally, the statement recommends fundamental approaches for promoting CVH with the help of various partnerships and the involvement of communities.
