Alina Comanescu: Urgent Call to Action – Don’t Let Cancer Slip Off the EU Agenda
Alina Comanescu, Board Member at Digestive Cancers Europe and HPV Action Consultant for Romania at European Cancer Organisation, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Urgent Call to Action: Don’t Let Cancer Slip Off the EU Agenda!
It was an immense honor to participate in and advocate at the ‘Bridging Cancer Advocacy and EU Action: Connecting Decision-Makers and Cancer Advocates’ event, masterfully organized by Cancer Patients Europe.
Being in the room, engaging directly with both dedicated cancer advocates and influential EU decision-makers, was a powerful reminder of the critical need for collaborative action in the fight against cancer.
Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan was a monumental achievement, offering a beacon of hope and a structured approach to tackling this disease. However, as political priorities shift, the vital momentum behind this plan is at risk. We cannot allow cancer to become yesterday’s concern.
Events like this are absolutely vital. They provide a unique platform to translate the lived experiences of cancer patients and the expertise of advocates into concrete policy recommendations.
I am more convinced than ever that by fostering these direct connections, we can ensure that EU actions genuinely reflect the needs and priorities of cancer patients across Europe. My heartfelt thanks to Cancer Patients Europe – CPE for orchestrating such a crucial and impactful event.
Let’s ensure Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan becomes a lasting legacy, not just a document on a shelf. The lives of millions depend on it.”
