Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Cancer remains a critical public health challenge, with low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) carrying a disproportionate burden — accounting for over 70% of global cancer deaths.
National Cancer Control Plans (NCCPs) represent a pivotal opportunity to build more resilient, equitable, and effective cancer care systems.
To highlight this, UICC and Bristol Myers Squibb co-hosted a side event during the UNGA80 in New York on the importance of NCCPs in strengthening health systems — with opening remarks from UICC President Ulrika Årehed Kågström.
Special thanks to our speakers:
- Dr Cary Adams.
- Lisa Stevens.
- Chiara Moroni.
- Dorothy Keefe.
- Kara Magsanoc.”
