Cancer in young individuals poses unique challenges, and the European Network of Youth Cancer Survivors (EU-CAYAS-NET) aims to address these with innovative solutions and support systems. As part of the broader European Union's Beating Cancer initiative, EU-CAYAS-NET focuses on the survivorship phase, providing resources, guidelines, and a platform for survivors to share their experiences and support each other.
Key Initiatives and Resources
Comprehensive guidelines and support for youth cancer survivorship
One of the critical resources provided by EU-CAYAS-NET is their comprehensive guidelines for youth cancer survivorship, available on the Beat Cancer website. These guidelines are instrumental in helping survivors navigate life post-treatment, addressing issues such as mental health, physical rehabilitation, and social reintegration.
Additionally, EU-CAYAS-NET has produced a series of videos and webinars to educate and support young cancer survivors. These materials include full-length webinars and highlights that cover a range of topics from personal stories to expert advice on managing life after cancer.
