Help us fight cancer! EU (FACE)
We hope you will join the Forum Against Cancer Europe (FACE) and we call on you to work towards implementing the European Parliament Cancer Resolution by supporting us in our campaign to:
1. Encourage and adopt national Charters for patients' rights according to European guidelines to ensure that the rights of cancer patients are upheld and enforced.
2. Urgently develop and, where existing, improve national cancer plans, setting priorities and effectively allocating resources for improving cancer control and research across the European Union, paying attention to rare or difficult to treat cancers.
3. Ensure cancer patients are included in formulating and monitoring all research, legislation and policies that affect their health.
4. Invest in cancer prevention in Member States and implement the Council Recommendation on Cancer Screening of 2003 by setting up or improving national high quality population-based screening programmes.
5. Vigorously promote cancer awareness in the general public through the existing Europe against Cancer Code.
6. Make timely, high quality and up to date information, diagnosis, treatment and care available for all cancer patients in each European Member State..
7. Firmly tackle the socio-economic and geographic divide, which leads to inequalities in cancer control
8. Oppose discrimination in the latest cancer treatment because of age, race, gender and domicile.
