“Had an amazing time last week at key conferences leading up to the 4th UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs and Mental Health. As ECO President, I’m thrilled about the global focus on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) like cancer. This is a huge moment to push for better research, treatment quality, and accessible cancer care for all. The European Cancer Organisation is working hard with experts and patient advocates to make quality cancer care a reality for every citizen.
The event was moderated by Allison Carlson, Executive Vice President of Foreign Policy, and featured an impressive gathering of global health leaders including: Shashank Deshpande, Head of Human Pharma at Boehringer Ingelheim; Ramsey Alwin, President and CEO of the National Council on Aging; Katie Dain, CEO of NCD Alliance; Dr. Csaba Dégi, President of the European Cancer Organisation; José Luis Díez Juárez de Figueroa, Counselor at the Permanent Mission to the United Nations for Spain; Dr. Mary-Ann Etiebet, President and CEO of Vital Strategies; Pearson Faulkner, Second Secretary at the Permanent Mission to the UN for Canada; Dr. Wayne A.
