It will open with a formal ceremony featuring distinguished regional delegates and a representative, underscoring the growing commitment to equity in cancer care across small island developing states (SIDS).
Throughout the day, participants will hear from experts across the Caribbean, the Pacific, Europe, and Africa as they discuss cancer care delivery in isolated settings, innovations in diagnostics and treatment, and the socioāstructural realities shaping patient journeys across borders.
