Our cities
Quezon City
Philippines
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the Philippines. Through its partnership with C/Can, Quezon City aims to improve its health system from ground up, enhancing access to quality cancer care and making it more equitable for all.
Unlocking cancer care with C/Can
Our work begins with a locally-led needs assessment, bringing together city stakeholders to identify gaps in cancer care through data-driven analysis. By understanding the city's unique context, we saw where intervention is most needed to achieve transformational change in cancer care.
Uncover the gaps
When a city joins the C/Can network, we start by diagnosing the city’s health system, investigating gaps in the city’s cancer care, and building a foundation for change by bringing local stakeholders together to lead the transformation.
Power the system
We co-create a strategic plan and a programme with each city driven by local priorities. Locally-led projects are executed and monitored to ensure lasting impact. When projects conclude, we support cities to sustain and accelerate their progress.
