World Cancer Day 2025

“United by Unique”
Altura Learning is proud to support and spread awareness for the UICC World Cancer Day 2025.
Every experience with cancer is unique and it will take all of us, united, to create a world where we look beyond the disease and see the person before the patient. The campaign will explore different dimensions of people-centered cancer care and new ways of making a difference. It will offer a three-year journey from raising awareness to taking action.
Behind every diagnosis lies a unique human stories of grief, pain, healing, resilience, love and more. That’s why a people-centered approach to cancer care that fully integrates each individual’s unique needs, with compassion and empathy, leads to the best health outcomes.
United in our goals, unique in our needs. That is the World Cancer Day credo that will be heard around the world in the lead-up to and on 4 February 2025. Its meaning is simple: everyone has unique needs, unique perspectives, and a unique story to tell, yet people touched by cancer are united in a shared ambition to lower the cancer burden, to see cancer treated successfully, and to lead better lives with cancer.
Every experience with cancer is unique, and it will take all of us, united, to create a world where we look beyond the disease and see the person before the patient. A world where the needs of people and communities are at the centre of health systems.
