About the session

Palliative care works best when it is built into health systems rather than delivered at the margins. This session looks at what stands in the way of integrating palliative care into health systems and at practical solutions that have helped to overcome those barriers. It is organised by the Two Worlds Cancer Collaboration as part of London Global Cancer Week, an annual series of events on global cancer care.

The session is relevant to clinicians, programme managers, policymakers, researchers and advocates working to expand access to palliative care, including for children.
