2016 Annual Report

Welcome to the 2016 Annual Report for the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC). It has been my honour to be the President of UICC during 2016 until I handed over the responsibility to Professor Sanchia Aranda at the end of a wonderful week in Paris in November when we organised the World Cancer Congress, World Cancer Leaders’ Summit and UICC General Assembly. This concluded a year of many achievements – many of which are covered in this report – some of which were particular highlights for me.
