World Cancer Day HistoryWorld Cancer Day aims to raise global public awareness about cancer: its prevention, detection, treatment, and the necessity for providing much-needed support to patients battling this disease. As an international observance, it emphasizes the importance of early cancer detection, informed conversation, preventative measures, and advancements in cancer treatment. The observance harps on the need for collective efforts to fight cancer, to create resources to lower the impact, and to make the fight against cancer a global priority. The Union for International Cancer Control first introduced World Cancer Day in the year 2000. In the Indian context, this day is incredibly significant as, according to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), India registered over a million new cancer cases and over 700,000 cancer deaths in 2018. Importantly, World Cancer Day aims to dispel common misconceptions prevalent in India and promotes the dissemination of factual information. The implicit objective of the observance includes spreading awareness of early detections, affordable treatment options, and the necessity for a proper palliative care infrastructure. In India, observance of World Cancer Day consist of a diverse range of activities and initiatives. These include free health check-ups, cancer detection campaigns, panel discussions, seminars, and various charity, fundraising events organized by NGOs, and healthcare bodies across the country to fund cancer research and patient care. The Indian Government along with NGOs brings awareness campaigns to every corner of the nation. World Cancer Day is observed on 4th February. In India, the significance of this day is increasingly recognized, given the rising cancer cases and the burden of the disease on public health. Facts about World Cancer Day
