We are focusing on pressing issues at the SCI meeting in Cyprus:

1⃣ The impact of the climate crisis on health:

As we gear up for #COP29 , people all over our region, young and old, are demanding #climateaction to protect our 🌍 and our health, for generations to come.

2⃣ Providing quality health care services for #cancer – through access to lifesaving diagnostics, therapies & care across the entire disease pathway.

This approach is clearly articulated in the #EU Beating Cancer plan, championed by Stella Kyriakides 🇪🇺.
