This NCCN Global Policy Webinar focuses on the most common risk factors for cancer, how to avoid these risk factors, and evidence-based prevention strategies. From smoking and alcohol consumption to the food we eat, the world around us has a large impact on overall health and cancer risk. Learning to understand and mitigate these risk factors can be a helpful tool in reducing physical and mental stress on patients and caregivers, as well as burden and cost on health systems.
The live webinar occurred on June 5, 2025.
