World Cancer Day 2015: The challenge

The Challenge

Early signs and symptoms are not known for all cancers, but for many cancers, including breast, cervical, colorectal, skin, oral, and some childhood cancers, the benefits of implementing planned approaches to early detection and care are clear.

Despite the evidence, for many populations, particularly in low-resource settings, the value of early detection and the importance of seeking care when symptoms are present are not understood, even among health professionals.

Many low-resource settings face a critical shortage of trained health professionals, which is a key barrier to the delivery of effective and quality and diagnosis early detection.
