The event organized by SPCC focuses on the urgent need for health equity in cancer care, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and Africa. It will address the impact of social determinants like socioeconomic status, race, and access to healthcare on cancer outcomes. The discussion will emphasize the importance of overcoming these barriers, expanding access to treatment, and ensuring equal care for all patients, regardless of background.
Speakers at the event, including Keefe Dorothy, Ibraheem Abiola, and Ilbawi André, will share insights on tackling these inequalities, advocating for strategies that promote health equity in oncology and improve outcomes for marginalized populations.
