The Economist Intelligence Unit has launched the Index of Cancer Preparedness looking at a range of elements that are relevant to cancer control. It presents data on 45 indicators relevant to specific parts of the prevention and care continuum as well as to the wider context in which such efforts occur. The index is accessible here: https://worldcancerinitiative.economist.com/index/map
