Equity in Global Oncology
Cancer care is advancing quickly, but access to diagnosis, treatment and support remains deeply uneven. In this episode of Connecting Citizens to Science, Professor Eva Kantelhardt and Professor Richard Sullivan discuss equity in global oncology, exploring how cancer systems can be strengthened through fair financing, better data, locally led research, patient voice and approaches that reflect the realities of different health systems and communities.
