WHO is launching a new campaign to enhance the life experience of people with cancer
Today WHO is launching the first global research better understand and respond to the needs of all cancer patients. The research is part of a wider campaign designed and intended to amplify the voices of those affected by cancer – survivors, carers and bereaved – as part of the WHO’s Framework for the Meaningful Inclusion of People Living with Noncommunicable Diseases (PLWNCD). This Framework represents a commitment to respectfully and meaningfully engage people living with HIV in co-designing policies, programs and solutions. The results of the survey will inform the development of policies and programs to offer better well-being in the context of a cancer diagnosis and participate in the creation of solutions for the future.
Almost every family globally has been affected by cancer, either directly – 1 in 5 people develop cancer in their lifetime – or as caregivers or family members. A cancer diagnosis has a far-reaching and profound effect on the health and well-being of all involved. “For too long, the focus of cancer control has been on clinical care rather than on the wider needs of people affected by cancer,” said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization. “Global cancer policies must be shaped not only by data and scientific research, but also by the voices and insights of people affected by the disease.”
Recent studies have shown that nearly half of people diagnosed with cancer experience anxiety and loss of faith, and may be abandoned by their intimate partners. In low- and middle-income countries, financial hardship and asset loss may be experienced by 70% or more of those affected. “When my daughter was diagnosed with cancer, our lives changed drastically in ways we never expected. The effects of cancer last a lifetime,” said Ruth Hoffman, president of the American Childhood Cancer Foundation.
Understanding and amplifying the lived experiences of people affected by cancer can create more effective support systems. However, the needs and preferences of people with cancer and their caregivers remain unknown to many service providers and policy makers. “We are making a long-term commitment to put people with cancer right at the center of the agenda, to create better solutions together,” explained Dr. Bente Mikkelsen, Director of the WHO’s Division of Noncommunicable Diseases. “This campaign will involve four phases: publishing a global survey, organizing national consultations, presenting best practices and implementing community-led initiatives. We are ready to open a new chapter and improve the well-being of people with cancer.”
The ambition of the global survey is to reach more than 100,000 respondents from 100 countries, most of whom live in low- and middle-income countries. The results of the survey are expected in early 2023 and will thereafter be used to shape policies, programs and services for people affected by cancer worldwide.
