Cardiovascular diseases are recognised worldwide as the leading cause of death. Particularly striking is the rise in cardiovascular risk factors such as tobacco use, obesity, hypertension and diabetes among socially vulnerable population groups and individuals with low socioeconomic status.

This Rapid Assessment examines the effectiveness of different measures and settings of intervention programmes already implemented at an international level, targeting socially vulnerable population groups.
