The World Conference on Breast Cancer Foundation INVITES YOU to the 5th World Conference on Breast Cancer. Come and experience the great Canadian Prairie Hospitality!
The World Conference serves women and men with breast cancer, along with the friends, family, and the community networks that support them. Delegates benefit from interactive workshops, conference speakers, poster presentations and much more.
The conference provides the opportunity to PARTICIPATE and LEARN about aspects of breast cancer research, diagnosis, treatment, support, prevention, outreach and education. It builds and strengthens international networks concerned with breast cancer, and advances global and local action related to breast cancer.
The conference creates opportunities to examine issues in all their variety and complexity, giving equal voice to the person affected by breast cancer, the clinician, the scientist, and the advocate. In this way, international knowledge is shared and enriched from a number of perspectives that broaden expertise, deepen sensitivity and respect, and accelerate progress in confronting breast cancer.
Each year, more than one million women are diagnosed with breast cancer and approximately 400,000 die from the disease. Today there are close to four million women living with breast cancer on our planet. In response, the World Conference on Breast Cancer Foundation is dedicated to global action on breast cancer by creating a safe environment where women and men of the world can share their breast cancer experiences, be understood, cared for, and supported.
