Last week, we successfully organised a workshop for researchers and policy makers across Europe to disseminate best practices on the implementation of cancer screening programmes. @gacd_media@HorizonEU
During the first day of the workshop, participants were also informed and provided with tools for monitoring and evaluation for cancer screening programmes. #EUTOPIAEAST
We are currently organizing a workshop for cancer screening researchers and policymakers from European and Mediterranean countries in Bled, Slovenia. #EUTOPIAEAST
The workshop was opened by Harry de Koning, Professor of Public Health and Screening Evaluation, ErasmusMC, The Netherlands. Followed by remarks from Slovenian Ministry of Health, the EU, and the WHO.
One of the goals in establishing a new cancer screening center is to address capacity issues, especially for implementing breast cancer screening in Georgia.
Mammography screening has been offered since 2008 in Georgia, however the participation is still around 10%.
Do you remember the workshops that we organized during the previous EU-TOPIA project? Now, within the EU-TOPIA-EAST project, a workshop is planned to be held in Slovenia on November 20th and 21st 2023.
This workshop will be aimed at key elements of screening: monitoring, evaluation, and barriers. Various sessions will be held including lectures, discussions, networking, and tools demonstration.
