Leveraging virtual communities of practice for cancer control in Africa – NCI Center for Global Health

NCI Center for Global Health shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Virtual communities of practice (VCoPs) can be used to bridge gaps, develop knowledge sharing networks, and build capacity for cancer control in global settings.

The Africa Cancer Research and Control ECHO is just one example of a VCoP that brings together patients, clinicians, advocates, and cancer planners to address the growing burden of cancer in Africa. Read more about VCoPs and the Africa Cancer ECHO in this new publication from ecancer.”
