The 2008 UICC World Cancer Congress will take place at Geneva-Palexpo in Geneva, Switzerland from August 27–31.

This meeting will mark a radical change from prior UICC meetings, as it will be managed directly by UICC and will adapt its format to suit the needs of all partners. We expect 3000 attendees representing patients, nurses, NGO’s related to cancer and tobacco, and oncologists.

Geneva Palexpo is located 10mn of the city centre and is served directly by the Geneva International Airport (100 nonstop flights), an international railway station and a motorway network.
