Key Objectives

Develop key advocacy tools such as factsheets, position statements and policy briefs to promote AORTIC in the policy arena and also channels to operationalise AORTIC advocacy activities through an African Cancer Advocates Network and member engagement at global, regional and national level.
Establish partnerships with key international and African stakeholders and platforms that will support promotion of the advocacy role of AORTIC and implementation of the advocacy workplan.
Work with the membership and partnerships committee to develop a) a members engagement plan and b) a recruitment plan for civil society and advocacy organisations with criteria and areas of collaboration to support the offer of free membership to AORTIC.
