ECC 2015: Challenging the European disparities in cancer care

Oncology

European Cancer Patient Coalition (ECPC), the largest European cancer patients’ umbrella organisation, presented the paper, ‘Europe of Disparities in Cancer’, which discusses the position of European cancer patients on the increasing inequalities in cancer care in Europe.

‘Europe of Disparities in Cancer’ is a scientifically validated, patient-friendly, patient-oriented set of recommendations on the most important approaches to address the inequalities in cancer care across Europe, including the need for better cancer health literacy, and access to cancer screening and early detection.

Presented at the European Cancer Conference (ECC) 2015 by Mark Lawler, PhD, of Queen’s University Belfast, Belfast, UK.
