Virtual 2022 UICC Annual Report
by UICC
UICC’s Virtual Dialogues continue to be a valuable platform for the engagement and connection with and between member organisations. In 2022, alongside the return to in-person events, there was a slight reduction in the number of Dialogues held, and in terms of overall participation, compared to 2021. A total of 14 Virtual Dialogues were hosted engaging 411 individual professionals from 279 organisations across 88 countries, of which almost 60% were members.
This year, the Dialogues were leveraged to inform and engage UICC’s membership around key topics, such as regional engagement; the UICC Strategy Review; the celebration of the 10-year anniversary of UICC’s sister organisation - the McCabe Centre for Law and Cancer; the learning and development needs of members; leadership; breast cancer, as well as key advocacy priorities, including alcohol and cancer, and universal health coverage.
"Visiting the host institute, Iridium Network, University of Antwerp, Belgium and observing and learning oncology care focused on providing appropriate, efficient and well-coordinated care for patients affected by breast cancer and their families, from diagnosis through treatment and support to the management of follow-up care and survivorship have provided a learning edge to implement the optimal care at my institute."
