  • Building sustainable access to oncology medicines in low‑resource settings

    Building sustainable access to oncology medicines in low‑resource settings
    Apr 15 2026

    This new episode of Let’s Talk Cancer, Cary Adams speaks with Dr Jackson Orem of the Uganda Cancer Institute (UCI), a UICC member, about a key driver of equity in cancer care: improving access to oncology medicines in low-resource settings.

    Together they explore the current landscape of cancer care in Uganda and the wider region, what it takes to strengthen cancer services sustainably, and how collaborative partnerships such as UICC-led Access to Oncology Medicines (ATOM) Coalition are supporting countries to build the systems, skills, and financing needed for reliable access to quality-assured oncology medicines and diagnostics, to ensure that essential medicines and diagnostics reach the right people and the right time – safely, affordably, and consistently.

    Dr Orem is a medical oncologist trained at Makerere University and the Karolinska Institute, and he has led the Institute’s expansion in cancer treatment, research, and international partnerships, contributing significantly to cancer care in Uganda and across Africa.

    Providing supportive cancer care in Egypt
    Feb 25 2026

    This new episode of the award-winning Let’s Talk Cancer builds on the recent World Cancer Day campaign theme 'United by Unique' about people-centred cancer care, exploring how comprehensive support can transform the breast cancer journey for women in Egypt and across the region.

    Cary Adams speaks with Dr Yomna Sherif, Patient Navigation Manager and breast surgeon at the Baheya Foundation in Egypt, a UICC member organisation dedicated to improving outcomes for women with breast cancer, and winner of the World Cancer Day Campaign award in 2024.

    Together, they look at how Baheya puts people-centred care into practice through services such as patient navigation, practical skills support, and help with transport and accommodation – and how patient-led organisations can shape more responsive, compassionate cancer services in their countries and beyond.
