LIVESTRONG International

May 5th, 2008 by Andy Miller (LAF Staff)

The LAF is often asked, “What are you doing to help cancer survivors who live in other countries?” To date, the vast majority of the LAF’s programs have been focused on cancer survivors in the United States. To help us better understand how cancer is viewed in other countries and the needs of those diagnosed with cancer, the LAF is embarking on a five country tour to interview cancer survivors from all walks of life. We feel that listening to these stories of cancer survivorship will help inform the LAF and any work we plan to conduct internationally. You are invited to follow the team from LAF as they travel the globe and conduct interviews with cancer survivors though their blog.

    This is great! Cancer is clearly a global problem, undoubtedly with different challenges in different regions. I’m so glad to see the LAF investigating how to make even more of a difference around the world.
