CancerWatch: improving cancer data quality and timeliness to strengthen cancer control.
CancerWatch is a Joint Action supporting Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan. Its primary goal is to improve the quality and timeliness of cancer registry data collected by the members of European Network of Cancer Registries. By innovating registration processes and addressing data disparities, CancerWatch will make more accurate and comparable insights available through the European Cancer Information System (ECIS) and the new European Health Data Space. Ultimately, this initiative will enhance our understanding of cancer trends and support more effective cancer policies and research across Europe.
Stay informed on the latest milestones and collaborative efforts driving the CancerWatch Joint Action forward across Europe.

The Centro de Oncología dos Açores (COA) proudly represented CancerWatch at the 4th S3 Summit in São Miguel. Our mission was to highlight the critical role of the Azores in strengthening the European cancer data landscape, specifically through the harmonization of regional registries to feed into the European Cancer Information System (ECIS).
At the IARC@60 conference, discussions emphasized the critical role of high-quality data in translating cancer research into effective, evidence-based policy. In this context, the CancerWatch JA team presented a poster titled “Population-Based Cancer Registries are the Pillars of Cancer Control in Europe: Ensuring Sustainability in a Changing Data Landscape”.
