UICC AWARDS
Recognising outstanding achievements and innovative practices from across the global cancer community
To maximise the impact of our collective efforts for global cancer control, it is important to learn from the many examples of leaders, campaigners, advocates and fundraisers from across the cancer community.
The UICC Awards aim to identify and celebrate the contributions made by professionals and organisations and inspire the cancer control community through their efforts.
In 2022 there will be two distinct set of Awards: the Abstract Awards, linked to the call for abstracts of the 2022 World Cancer Congress and open to all submitters; and the UICC Members Awards, linked to UICC General Assembly and open to UICC members only.
The Abstract Awards Ceremony will take place during the closing ceremony of the 2022 World Cancer Congress, whereas the UICC members awards ceremony will take place during the General Assembly, which will take place virtually, and be held separately from the Congress.
