UICC is pleased to present the preliminary programme for the World Cancer Congress 2024, which will take place 17-19 September in Geneva, Switzerland, where UICC is headquartered.
"Anyone who comes to the Congress in Geneva is going to have a fantastic time meeting friends and colleagues from around the world. Each day there are plenary sessions where everyone gets together, there are side sessions, there are workshops, there are roundtables, there are opportunities to sit down and meet other people in all of the open areas."
– Cary Adams, CEO of UICC
This programme outlines the key themes and topics set to be explored at the Congress, notably focusing on advances and innovations in cancer prevention, screening and treatment, and strategies for overcoming disparities in access to essential cancer services and medicines.
To make the event more accessible to a wider audience and encourage broad participation, UICC is offering early registration discounts of up to 50%.
The World Cancer Congress 2024 is an opportunity for members of the cancer control community to engage with the latest research, policy developments and best practices in the field. By sharing knowledge and experiences, participants will contribute to shaping the future of global cancer control.
"You can have something like 50 meetings that would take a year to complete just in those three days, if you plan correctly."
– Dr Freddie Bray, Head of the Cancer Surveillance Branch at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
