The 2026 Global Colorectal Cancer Congress, organized by the Global Colon Cancer Association (GCCA), will take place on 5–6 November 2026 in a hybrid format, with virtual participation worldwide and a limited in-person component in Nairobi, Kenya.

The international congress will bring together patient advocates, healthcare professionals, researchers, policymakers, and industry partners to advance colorectal cancer advocacy, education, and collaboration.

The programme will cover prevention and screening, biomarkers and precision medicine, diagnostics, treatment innovation, quality of care, equity and access, health-system capacity, survivorship, supportive care, advocacy, and policy. Live sessions are scheduled for 8:30 AM–4:00 PM EAT on November 5 and 8:00 AM–12:00 PM EAT on November 6, with an additional in-person-only component later on the second day.

Registration is free for both virtual and in-person participants, and registered attendees will receive access to on-demand recordings after the congress. Simultaneous translation will also be available in more than 60 languages.
