Fellowship applications suspended
A significant reduction in the level of support provided by several of the long-standing partners of the programme due to budget constraints imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent economic crisis has forced UICC regretfully to suspend applications for its Fellowships programme.
The Technical Fellowships programme and its French sub-programme Bourses pour l’Afrique Francophone are dedicated to promoting cancer control by offering cancer professionals short-term international training opportunities. UICC had planned to open them on 1 April.
UICC regrets to announce that the calls for the Technical Fellowships programme and the Bourses pour l’Afrique francophone sub-programme will unfortunately remain closed until further notice.
