The beating heart of UICC is its thriving community of member organisations, numbering 1,201 in 173 countries. These members include cancer societies, patient support groups, research and cancer centres, non-government organisations (NGOs), grassroots organisations, professional associations and government agencies shaping cancer control everywhere in the world.
In 2021, UICC members persevered in the face of the pandemic’s many challenges, maintaining and even increasing their level of engagement across UICC programmes and activities. At the same time, UICC worked to strengthen relationships with its members by keeping in constant communication and responding to members’ needs through online engagement and specific learning opportunities to help address new and unique demands arising from the pandemic.
