Objective: to present the Brazilian Plan to Combat NCDs and compare it with the global goals for combating these diseases by 2025. Methods: a narrative review was performed of scientific articles and documents produced by WHO, PAHO and the Brazilian Government.

Results: the Member States and WHO defined 25 indicators and 9 targets for NCDs, including indicators for mortality and mor bidity, exposure (risk factors) and health system response capacity. These indicators exist in the Brazilian NCD Plan. Conclusion: this set of indicators will enable comparable international evaluations regarding NCD status and trends over time, thus supporting each country’smonitoring situation.
