AFROCANCER is a non governmental organization engaged in the promotion and control of cancer in developing countries. We mainly focus on cancer education, awareness, early detection, formation and research (fundamental and clinic). We edit a bilingual journal: “Journal Africain du Cancer/ African Journal of Cancer” (Springer). The journal is the "trading floor" that aims at setting up a North-South cooperation linkage and to facilitate collaboration between players based in the South so as to, together, face the numerous challenges of cancer. Putting cancer control on the international and political agenda is also one of our objectives.
