About the Project
Cancer patients in Europe are treated by an array of different specialties and professions: medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, cancer nurses and many others. Teamwork is essential. But high functioning teamwork requires a clear understanding of each other’s roles and competencies.
INTERACT-EUROPE 100 is an ambitious project to provide cancer care professionals with the training necessary to enhance this collaboration – now coming to 100 cancer centres across Europe.
INTERACT-EUROPE 100 aims to implement the Inter-specialty Cancer Training (ISCT) curriculum developed under its predecessor, the INTERACT-EUROPE project. The training curriculum is available online here.
INTERACT-EUROPE 100 is a 36-month project (December 2023 – December 2026). It is co-funded by the European Union under the EU4Health programme 2021-2027 as part of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
This project involves 38 partner organisations from 15 European countries implementing this novel training curriculum.
