Projects
Cancer Prevention Europe (CPE) is creating a landmark European Knowledge Hub on cancer prevention to make evidence in cancer prevention easily accessible for use in evidence-based public health decision-making. The Hub will promote the rapid dissemination of best practices in cancer prevention, the expansion of evidence evaluation activities, and the definition of unanswered questions that require research investment. The Hub will also include capacity-building in cancer prevention for a variety of audiences, through the Learning Centre.
The CPE Knowledge Hub will offer a platform for researchers, policy-makers, programme implementers, health professionals, international organizations, and non-governmental organizations (cancer prevention advocates) to build on the available evidence and research-tested materials, and to foster interdisciplinary dialogue.
The projects currently being developed are summarized below.PROJECT |
