NCMHs and Community Engagement Beyond Patient Advocacy Groups

National Cancer Mission Hubs (NCMHs) aim to bring together a broad range of stakeholders to implement EU Mission on Cancer and the Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan at national, regional, and local levels.

While the engagement of researchers, health professionals, and patient advocacy groups in cancer activities is rather straight-forward, the broader involvement of communities beyond health and research, such as the civil society, is less obvious.

Join us June 26, from 15:00 CET, on this dynamic ECHoS practitioner community series webinar that will focus on how NCMHs can reflect, explore, and strategise their engagement with the wider public, communities, and civil society, leveraging their unique strengths and how to bring them to the table. This approach will allow NCMHs, and partners, achieve impactful results that go far beyond traditional approaches.
