The WHO Global Breast Cancer Initiative Capacity Building Toolkit: Resources Collection

This resource collection features a dynamic selection of guidance and resources from the UN agencies, including WHO and its regional offices, IARC and IAEA, which can be adapted to national contexts to support the implementation of breast cancer programs in line with GBCI recommendations. 

Updates on events, research, and additional resources will be continuously shared through the GBCI Community of Practice.
