Alejandra Mendez, President of Childhood Cancer International, shared on LinkedIn:
“I am truly honored and grateful for the invitation to speak at London Global Cancer Week 2026, hosted by The Dorcas Cancer Foundation.
As President of Childhood Cancer International, I am proud to contribute to this important conversation, representing the voices of children and adolescents with cancer, their families, and our global community.
Patient navigation is much more than helping families find their way through healthcare systems. It is about ensuring that no child or family has to face the cancer journey alone.
I look forward to sharing experiences and perspectives on how we can strengthen patient navigation and improve access to care across Africa. A very special thank you to Korede Akindele, for your friendship, trust, and continued support. I am grateful for the opportunity to collaborate once again!
Together, we can help build more compassionate, equitable, and family-centered cancer care.”
