The WBCPC 2020 Virtual Annual Meeting

This year we are meeting virtually and hope to bring our event to an even wider global audience. The WBCPC 2020 Annual Meeting theme is “Ensuring bladder cancer is on the global health policy agenda.”

Strong bladder cancer patient groups across the world can bring bladder cancer higher on national and global health policy agenda, thus driving our collective mission towards ensuring the best possible outcomes for patients. One of the core missions of the World Bladder Cancer Patient Coalition is to foster an international community of people affected by bladder cancer.

We will discuss different avenues for engaging our multi-stakeholder network to help us deliver this mission, exchange ideas on how to connect these communities with each other and with resources, and how to bring unity for the vision and goals of bladder cancer patient organisations worldwide. We invite you to also bring your ideas that you wish to share, that can help us in reaching our mission.

The meeting will also bring attention to  some of the most pressing issues in the bladder cancer community. From medicines shortages to innovation in bladder cancer, the discussion will focus on patients voice in shaping research agenda and driving advocacy and policy change.
