SUMMARY:International Childhood Cancer Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 International Childhood Cancer Day (ICCD) policy event\, “Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan Implementation for Children and Adolescents: Looking Ahead – What remains to be done to improve access to care\, research and sustainable survivorship programmes”\, will take place as an online policy dialogue on Thursday\, 26 February 2026\, from 15:30 to 17:00 CET. \nHosted by MEP Vlad Voiculescu (Renew\, RO)\, this annual event gathers policymakers\, researchers\, healthcare providers\, and patient advocates to assess progress and shape future EU action on childhood and adolescent cancer. SIOP Europe and CCI Europe will share evidence and perspectives from paediatric oncology professionals\, parents\, and survivors. \nThis year’s edition will showcase the progress made under Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan (EBCP)\, especially through its Spotlight on Childhood Cancer\, and will also examine how these achievements can be translated into timely and sustainable delivery for children and adolescents up to and after 2030. \nRegister HereProgrammeThe event will support discussions on the European Parliament’s own-initiative report on the EBCP\, currently under preparation. As the EBCP moves into its next implementation phase and future EU cancer policy initiatives are planned beyond 2025\, the event emphasises that childhood cancer must remain a visible priority. Strong political support and practical measures are essential to ensure that all children and young people with cancer in Europe benefit from equally high standards of care\, research\, and survivorship services. \nThe discussion will focus on two core priority areas across the childhood cancer pathway: \n\nEqual access to high-quality care and research\, including access to specialised expertise\, cross-border collaboration\, and innovation for children\, adolescents\, and young adults with cancer\, regardless of where they live in Europe\nSurvivorship and psychosocial care\, with a focus on long-term follow-up care and the sustainability of survivorship programmes for childhood cancer survivors and their families.\n\nBy bringing together policymakers and key stakeholders from across the childhood cancer community and beyond\, the event aims to foster shared understanding and actionable policy directions. The goal is to ensure that progress achieved at EU level through the EBCP translates into lasting\, equitable impact for all children and young people with cancer across Europe. \nRegister Here
