No Borders in Survival: Delivering Cancer Care to Every Child, Everywhere | Manette Le Grange

In this episode of OncoInfluencers, Dr. Gevorg Tamamyan sits down with Manette Le Grange, during the One Health Summit Lyon. What does it truly mean to have no borders in survival?

Drawing from her work across Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe, and global health systems, Manette Le Grange shares her perspective on one of the most urgent challenges in oncology today: inequitable access to life-saving cancer treatment for children.

In this episode:

  • Why “children with cancer can be cured” – but access remains the barrier
  • How the One Health approach connects human, environmental, and system-wide health
  • The role of governments, pharmaceutical companies, and global partnerships in improving access to cancer care
  • How the Act for Children Foundation is scaling access across multiple countries
  • Real-world challenges: regulatory hurdles, supply chains, and geopolitical instability

This conversation goes beyond theory, focusing on practical, scalable solutions, offering both strategic insight and actionable pathways to improve outcomes for children worldwide to ensure that where a child is born does not determine their chance of survival.
