Health Equity

Victoria has some of the best cancer outcomes in the world and is recognised as having a leading cancer system. However, these positives are not experienced equally by everyone, and that gap is widening.

Explore the work we're doing to pursue equity in access to cancer care and outcomes for all Victorians affected by cancer.

Consumer Engagement

At the VCCC Alliance, we strive to amplify the consumer voice in everything we do, because no-one knows cancer like someone who’s lived it.

Effective consumer engagement not only ensures our organisation’s work is grounded in a patient-centric philosophy, but tangibly assists researchers, clinicians and educators to better understand and tap into the lived experience of cancer for the benefit of all.

Discover Consumer Engagement

I feel fortunate to now work with the VCCC Alliance to help others who are affected by cancer, and their families, and be a part of change that helps to improve the system for all.
