Ulrika Årehed Kågström: World Cancer Day calls for us to place people at the very heart of care
Ulrika Årehed Kågström posted on LinkedIn:
“With the launch of United By Unique, Union for International Cancer Control (UICC)’s new three-year theme for World Cancer Day, I am moved by the power of our global community. Each person’s experience with cancer is deeply personal, and Word Cancer Day calls for us to place people at the very heart of care.
On February 4, I encourage you to join us in amplifying this message. Whether by sharing your story, supporting someone affected, or helping raise awareness, we can make a real impact. Together, let’s work towards a future where no one faces cancer alone, and where care is centered around each individual’s unique needs.”
