Global collaboration in cancer care and advocacy is more critical than ever before. Thrilled to be part of the @Global Cancer Coalitions Network Annual Meeting this week in Toronto, where leading cancer patient and advocacy organisations from around the world are gathering with a shared purpose: to improve patient outcomes, strengthen cancer patient advocacy and support 750+ local groups our members represent. We are having inspiring discussions and exploring practical approaches to address the challenges in cancer care through patient advocacy globally. It’s encouraging to see the diverse perspectives and expertise in the room, reminding us of the importance of working together. Looking forward to the opportunities this collaboration will bring to improve cancer care for patients around the world. Thank you to Princess Margaret Cancer Centre for hosting us in Toronto. Your support has been key in making this meeting a success.
