World Child Cancer shared a post on LinkedIn:
“The World Child Cancer team has officially landed in Lagos for SIOP Africa 2026!
Day one reminded us exactly why spaces like this matter.
We recorded the very first live episode of our new Emotional Wellbeing Podcast, a conversation that felt as honest as it was important.
A huge thank you to our guests Prof Jennifer Geel (Paediatric Oncologist and SIOP Africa President) and Mariam Ndagire (Senior Paediatric Oncology Nurse and Deputy Patient Manager at the Uganda Cancer Institute), alongside our host Juliet Akuamoah Boateng, for sharing their experiences so openly in front of a live audience. We’re looking forward to sharing this episode with you soon!
This podcast is supported by Amgen (Sean Lybrand, Philip Anderson), whose commitment to the emotional wellbeing of paediatric oncology professionals makes this series possible. We thank them for strengthening the wellbeing of healthcare professionals.
It was also a real highlight to spend time with colleagues from Tamale who were supported to attend the SIOP Africa congress by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF), including Jonah Ayamba (Upper East Regional Hospital, Ghana), Joy Ajibta (Tamale Teaching Hospital), and Frieda Abilba (Tamale Teaching Hospital). It was a great opportunity to build ongoing relationships centred around a shared commitment to improving care for children with cancer.
We’re excited for the days ahead, from contributing to key discussions to seeing our team participate in panels alongside inspiring leaders in paediatric oncology.”
