The entire team focuses on improving the survival rates of children with cancer on a global level.  

Through the exchange of knowledge and expertise within our ''twinning programmes'', we work together with hospitals in low- and middle-income countries on various aspects that affect the survival of children with cancer. This requires a broad approach and a multidisciplinary team.
