Dr Dian Triana Sinulingga speaks to ecancer about strengthening the comprehensive cancer program and monitoring in Indonesia by tele-mentoring ECHOD.

Strengthening cancer programs in Indonesia uses tele-mentoring to overcome geographical challenges and standardise cancer control.

The initiative connects rural and urban areas, offering multidisciplinary expertise.

Launched in 2021, it began with breast cancer and expanded to early detection and diagnostics for various cancers.

Training for nurses and general practitioners occurs alongside progress monitoring, addressing local issues without costs, and collaborating with the Ministry of Health to improve regulations and guidelines.
