The WHO NCD microdata repository supports open data access to improve evidence-based and data-informed public health programming for NCD prevention and control. This microdata repository contains data from relevant NCD surveys which have used the standardized and recommended WHO tools and methods for undertaking population based surveys on NCD risk factors and related behaviours. These include: the STEPwise approach to noncommunicable disease risk factor surveillance (STEPS), the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS), the Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS), and the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS).
