The New European Code Against Cancer – Association of European Cancer Leagues

Association of European Cancer Leagues shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Introducing the new European Code Against Cancer: 14 ways to help prevent cancer!

What if preventing cancer could start with simple, daily changes and smart policy action? That’s the idea behind the European Code Against Cancer, an initiative of the European Commission first launched in 1987 to help people across Europe make informed decisions that reduce the risk of cancer.

Now, a new and improved version is here. The fifth edition of the European Code Against Cancer (ECAC5), developed by the IARC – International Agency for Research on Cancer/World Health Organization, offers 14 science-based recommendations for prevention.

For the first time, the updated Code goes beyond individual actions, adding clear recommendations for governments and decision-makers to drive stronger, systematic change to reduce the burden of cancer across Europe.

At ECL, we’re proud to be official supporters of this landmark initiative – because prevention is one of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against cancer.

Learn more about ECAC5.”
