World Cancer Day 2014  (4 February 2014) will build on the success of last year's campaign, by again focusing on   Target 5 of the World Cancer Declaration: Reduce stigma and dispel myths about cancer , under the tagline   “Debunk the myths” . World Cancer Day is a chance to raise our collective voices in the name of improving general knowledge around cancer and dismissing misconceptions about the disease. From a global level, we are focusing our messaging on the four myths above. In addition to being in-line with our global advocacy goals, these overarching myths leave a lot of flexibility for members, partners and supporters to adapt and expand on for their own needs. http://www.worldcancerday.org/

The World Cancer Declaration calls upon government leaders and health policy-makers to significantly reduce the global cancer burden, promote greater equity, and integrate cancer control into the world health and  development agenda. Building on the Global NCD Action Plan (2013-2020) agreed by Member States at the World Health Assembly in May 2013, the global cancer community has identified a set of immediate actions for all stakeholders, in particular governments, to advance progress towards the 9 World Cancer Declaration targets and the overarching goal. OVERARCHING GOAL AND 9 TARGETS OF THE WORLD CANCER DECLARATION Overarching Goal: There will be major reductions in premature deaths from cancer, and improvements in quality of life and cancer survival rates.
