INTERACT-EUROPE 100 (IMABARK100) is an initiative aimed at enhancing cancer care across Europe by fostering collaboration among healthcare professionals.

Building on the success of the original INTERACT-EUROPE project, it provides Inter-specialty Cancer Training (ISCT) across 100 cancer centers, integrating new modules focused on paediatric oncology and the specific needs of displaced people with cancer, particularly those from Ukraine.

By breaking down medical silos and strengthening teamwork between specialties, the project seeks to improve patient outcomes and align with the European Code of Cancer Practice, ensuring a holistic, patient-centered approach to cancer treatment.
