Explore the preliminary program

Centred on the theme, Global Voices, Local Actions: From Inspiration to Implementation, this year’s Congress offers a unique opportunity for cancer nurses from around the world to come together in Adelaide, Australia, to focus on championing nurse-led care and transforming global ideas into actionable strategies for local healthcare settings.

Our program offers a comprehensive exploration of key challenges and cutting-edge innovations in cancer care. Topics include optimal care pathways, genomics and genetics, palliative care, survivorship and so much more, meaning there is something for everyone. We'll also highlight initiatives aimed at strengthening the cancer nursing workforce, leadership development, and global nurse education and training, while focusing on building resilience within our profession.

We're so excited to welcome back our esteemed Gala Dinner next year – a special evening of celebration and networking with colleagues from around the world. Explore the program here.
