Shape the programme

Whether you're a clinician, researcher, advocate, or leader—raise your voice and help shape an inspiring Congress programme.

The Congress programme is drawn from the contribution of the global cancer community. There are many ways to contribute to the World Cancer Congress programme (see below). Our appointed Programme Committee oversees the whole process. 

Whether you are an experienced oncologist, a dedicated cancer researcher, an inspirational caregiver, a committed volunteer representing a patient support group, an employee of a cancer society, a fundraiser or the general director of a hospital, get involved, raise your voice, submit a proposal and support us in shaping a comprehensive and inspiring Congress Programme.
