The ICCP is excited to announce the addition of the Cancer Control Planning and Implementation (CCPI) Master Course webinars to the portal’s Technical Assistance toolkit. The 2016 CCPI is a series of eight webinars that were facilitated via an online e-learning platform consisting of webinars, online discussions over a period of four months and culminated in a one-day, in-person workshop at the World Cancer Congress. Each section of the course was purpose-built by internationally-recognized cancer control professionals to convene, build capacity, and transfer knowledge for those engaged in cancer control from various disciplines, and at different levels, from all regions of the world. ICCP partners and other stakeholders hope to expand their reach by sharing this tool on the portal.
Expert knowledge is shared on a wide range of cancer topics including:
- Foundational elements of national cancer control plans (NCCP) and how to best develop specific strategies to move NCCP efforts forward;
- NCCP implementation and evaluation;
- Strengthening cancer registries and best use of data;
- Addressing the full spectrum of cancer control through planning - from prevention and screening to diagnosis, and palliative care;
- Strengthening NCCP research to support planning and implementation;
- Addressing social determinants of health through NCCPs;
- Using resource stratified guidelines to inform planning;
- Resource planning to support effective, affordable, and sustainable improvements in cancer prevention and control.
