It provides justification for action, posits priority interventions and proposes a monitoring framework. Key components needed to establish, scale up and sustain a well-functioning national childhood cancer programme are explained.The scope of this framework document is centrally defined by the programmes, services and policies that support children with cancer in the context of the health system. For the Initiative, children are defined as those aged 19 years or younger. Childhood cancer care requires cross-cutting strategies, such as workforce training, that often have overlap with broader child health and/or cancer control programmes. These synergies are highlighted and considered in scope for the Initiative and for an integrated response in childhood cancer control. The primary audience for this framework document are policy-makers, cancer control programme managers and hospital managers at the country level. Additional key stakeholders may also find the information in this guide beneficial, including clinicians, parent groups, civil society, academia and interested parties in the private sector.
