Abstract: Introduction: Palestine is facing an epidemiological transformation that affects its health to the major health diseases of Non communicable diseases (NCDs) and the majority of mortality rates. The aim to know the contextualize the research requirements and prevention for Non communicable diseases (NCDs)Methods: Using both systematic and other literature search, we identified and reviewed NCD and reported since 2000. Information was extracted from published papers. The extracted information was refined through further review and then underwent a textual narrative synthesis.Result: Cardiovascular disorders, asthma, cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) are the main NCDs The key risk factors common for many chronic diseases are smoking, diet, physical inactivity, high blood pressure, and obesity.Important epidemiological descriptions have told us of the causes and distribution of NCDs and the insufficiencies in tackling NCDs have been demonstrated by their risk factors, including non-health determinants (poverty, schooling, jobs, and health system assessments. In the shaping of the research agenda, many global initiatives and publications have given guidance.Conclusion: Major progress has been made in research related to Non communicable diseases in the nation. As we take its stock, it is evident that to optimize research outputs to address the increasing burden of chronic Non communicable diseases, a strategic path and thrust is needed. It needs simultaneous galvanization of monitoring, surveillance and cooperation activities, thus reinforcing efforts to provide universal health care for all people.
