Haimanot Kasahun: It’s a Privilege to Serve as BOAA’s Planning Committee

Haimanot Kasahun, Clinical Oncologist at St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College, shared on LinkedIn:

“As we just wrap up the 2 days Best Of ASCO Africa ( BOAA) program, held In Addis Ababa, Ethiopia from Jun 27-28th 2025:
  • It’s a privilege to serve as BOAA’s planning committee. It elevated my growing experience in the international global oncology platform.
  • As a leadership member of AORTIC- Africa and Ethiopian Society of Hematology and Oncology – ESHO and BOAA, it is a great honor for me to serve as a bridge between these three organisations for the BOAA program in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
  • We have discussed the pressing issues about the brain drain/ brain flight/ brain migration in Africa which I take as the beginning effort for the upcoming long journey towards advocacy and its solutions including regional & global political commitment.
  • Many best global ASCO abstracts were presented and discussed to look for ways for African patients to have access to better cancer care and adress disparities in care.
  • Many rising stars of young oncologists across the continent have participated as speakers and attendees which will definitely elevate thier experience & networking in the global stages of cancer care discussions.
  • Special thanks for BOAA planning committee, all reknown Oncology professionals in Africa and beyond across the who participated and made the event highly relevant.
  • Special thanks for the hosts Ethiopian Society of Hematology and Oncology-ESHO, AORTIC- Africa American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)”
