We are delighted to announce that ecancer is now a supporting organization of HIFA – Healthcare Information For All.  HIFA is a campaign and knowledge network with more than 7,000 members representing 2,500 organisations in 171 countries worldwide.

Members include health workers, publishers, librarians, information technologists, researchers, social scientists, journalists, policy-makers and others – all working together towards the HIFA Vision: a world where every person and every health worker has access to the healthcare information they need to protect their own health and the health of those for whom they are responsible.

Healthcare providers can only function effectively if their basic professional needs are met.  Lack of basic healthcare knowledge leads to needless death and suffering in developing countries. ecancer is committed to improving cancer communication and education with the goal of alleviating this situation worldwide, and will be promoting HIFA's vision as much as possible.
