People living with cancer have the right to know their diagnosis.

Health providers should communicate cancer diagnoses directly, clearly and with empathy. This should be done regardless of the patient’s age, social status or stage of disease.

The WHO report on cancer control marks an important opportunity to place people affected by cancer at the centre of cancer control efforts.

It calls on governments, international organisations, civil society, academic institutions, the private sector, and WHO to work together to deliver a people-centred and holistic approach to care for individuals and families affected by cancer.

To support this vision, the report outlines some key recommendations and three strategic shifts to be implemented across all countries and communities:
