Priorities for #Cancer#prevention in the next years : reduce cancer deaths, improve a smoother translation from research into prevention action policy, focus on achievable goals and cancer whose pronostic didn't improve in a long time. @IARCWHO inauguration's ceremony.

Women make up 70% of the health workforce globally, incl. 90% of all nurses, BUT
👩🏻⚕️ They occupy only 25% of global health leadership roles
👩🏻⚕️ On average earn 25% less than their male colleagues
We must address the root causes of disparities in women’s and girl’s health
New video📺 to mark #RareDiseaseDay!
Rare #cancers are #cancer types with <6 newly diagnosed cases per 100 000 people per year.
While individually rare, these cancer types combine to account for ~25–30% of all cancer diagnoses & 25% of cancer deaths.

Over 1 million children became maternal orphans, in 2020 alone.

3/3 Q and challenge to all !! What other critical measures of the cancer burden and cancer's impact should the global cancer research community be highlighting and quantifying?
Today on #WorldChildrensDay, @valmacsee and I would like to highlight the issue of maternal orphans due to cancer deaths. This issue is important and often overlooked. Read our new study @NatureMedicine https://t.co/trmHrr0ofb
On @UNICEF#WorldChildrensDay@IARCWHO estimates there were 7 million maternal orphans due to cancer and 1 million children newly maternally orphaned in 2020. Many of the contributing ♀️ cancer deaths are preventable. https://t.co/JetvtjPlPt
A new study provides the first estimates of the global number of maternal orphans due to cancer.
"In 2020, 4.4 million women died from cancer worldwide. We estimated that these deaths led to 1.04 million new orphans." - @valmacsee, @IARCWHO. #WCC2022
