The Global Oncology (GO) Map is an interactive online tool and public resource for the global cancer community. Its purpose is to help the cancer control community initiate partnerships, make informed decisions, and develop collaborations. The GO Map catalogs international projects and events related to cancer research, care, and outreach, and displays them in a searchable format.
The primary goals of the GO Map are to:
Facilitate the breaking down of silos and building of collaboration
Accelerate progress, ensure a balanced investment of resources, and align global cancer care and control efforts
Provide resources to view and better understand international efforts in cancer research and control
The inception of the GO Map was made possible through an alliance between the National Cancer Institute Center for Global Health (NCI CGH) and Global Oncology. The tool was initially developed based on NCI’s database.
