Learn, share, and explore opportunities for collaboration while discussing key issues affecting patients with cancer, survivors and caregivers.
The ESMO Congress 2025 patient advocacy track sessions, developed by the ESMO Patient Advocates Working Group (PAWG), provide a platform for all congress delegates to engage in meaningful discussions on key advocacy issues that directly impact cancer care.
This year’s sessions will cover quality of life, advancing cancer care through AI and real-world evidence, cancer and fertility, and diversity and equity in cancer care.
Join the conversation and help shape the future of patient advocacy in oncology.
