WG4 works to enhance public awareness and participation in cancer screening programmes.
Recognizing the diversity of Mediterranean populations, it places particular emphasis on vulnerable groups, including migrants, rural populations, and people with disabilities.
Key activities include:
- Reviewing and collecting evidence on effective awareness and invitation strategies for cancer screening.
- Conducting context analyses to understand barriers and facilitators to participation.
- Mapping vulnerable populations in each country and identifying best practices for reaching them.
- Exploring innovative communication approaches and the use of new technologies to increase participation.
- Supporting the development of cross-country pilot initiatives to test and evaluate tailored interventions.
WG4 ensures that cancer prevention efforts are inclusive, culturally sensitive, and responsive to the needs of all communities.
