SUMMARY:Cyprus Cancer Policy in European Spotlight: Forging Collaborations
DESCRIPTION: See also: Launch of the Larnaka Call in Larnaka, 4 July - A long-term future for European action against cancer - Read more \n \nEvery year, 4,500 Cypriots are diagnosed with cancer. While Cyprus has emerged as a European leader in cancer care, challenges threaten to slow its progress.\n \nAn estimated 21% of the population smokes daily, too few Cypriots are getting screened for cervical and colorectal cancers, and socio-economic inequalities continue to determine access to treatment. Cyprus has the opportunity to re-energise its national strategy against cancer. And there is no better time than now.\n \nThe European Cancer Organisation (ECO) and Cyprus Association of Cancer Patients and Friends (PASYKAF) brought together healthcare professionals, policymakers, and patient advocates for a focused policy event with a uniting goal: maintaining cancer care a priority for Cypriot decision makers.\n \nDuring the event, ECO and PASYKAF unveiled the European Cancer Pulse Country Report for Cyprus: a snapshot of progress, strengths, and critical areas for improvement in the fight against cancer. \n \nThe report is now available in English and Greek.
