Our vision
Cardiovascular health for everyone
We believe every human being should have access to the information, care and treatment they need to keep their heart healthy, regardless of race, nationality, gender, age, education or income. At the World Heart Federation, we work tirelessly to ensure the global population is provided with accurate and up to date details and data on cardiovascular diseases.
Who we are
Urban Centers: The Frontline in the Fight Against Cardiovascular Disease
Urban centres, where the vast majority of the world’s population now resides, are the frontline in our fight against cardiovascular disease. By harnessing a wide array of sectors—not just healthcare, but also urban planning, environment, and technology—we can make significant strides towards healthier populations, curb preventable diseases, and significantly reduce premature loss of life.
