PROJECT SUMMARY According to the World Health Organization, morbidity and mortality from non-communicable diseases in Africa will surpass that of communicable diseases by 2030. While Africa faces several challenges in controlling cancer, the field of Implementation Science (IS) offers a ray of hope for cancer control in Africa. Defined as the “study of methods to promote the adoption and integration of evidence-based practices, interventions, and policies into routine health care and public health settings to improve the impact on population health”, IS is crucial to address the disproportionate burden of cancer in Africa. Unfortunately, Africa does not have the much needed research workforce for IS. The African Organization for Research and Training in Cancer (AORTIC), African Behavioral Research (ABeR) Center, Africa Cancer ECHO, and International Cancer Research Partnership (ICRP) have partnered to create an Implementation Science for Cancer Control in Africa (ISC2- Africa) Network. We are proposing an ISC2-Africa inaugural conference to be held biennially as a pre- conference to the AORTIC International Cancer Conference. The primary goal of the ISC2-Africa conference is to elevate IS scholarship in Africa. In addition, we will develop an African IS workforce that will bring unique perspective to addressing cancer control in Africa as well as effectively deliver and integrate cancer control interventions within the Africa health care systems and communities. Utilizing an innovative framework, the conference will foster: (1) the mobilization of resources within African countries for Afro-centric IS strategies; (2) partnership with key stakeholders for effective and culturally appropriate IS research; and (3) the development and successful implementation of IS research across Africa. A cornerstone of our conference -- and we believe the most innovative aspect-- is that the final conference agenda is based on the needs identified by cancer scientists and clinicians in Africa through a SWOT Analysis survey.

项目摘要 根据世界卫生组织，非洲非传染性疾病的发病率和死亡率 到2030年将超过传染病。虽然非洲在控制癌症方面面临着若干挑战， 实施科学（IS）领域为非洲的癌症控制提供了一线希望。定义为“研究 促进采用和整合循证实践、干预措施和政策的方法， 常规卫生保健和公共卫生环境，以改善对人口健康的影响”，是至关重要的解决 癌症在非洲的不成比例的负担。不幸的是，非洲没有急需的研究， 劳动力为。非洲癌症研究和培训组织（AORTIC） 行为研究（ABeR）中心，非洲癌症ECHO和国际癌症研究 国际辐射防护委员会（ICRP）合作创建了非洲癌症控制实施科学（ISC 2）。 非洲）网络。我们建议每两年举行一次国际科学委员会第二届会议-非洲开幕会议， AORTIC国际癌症会议。ISC 2-非洲会议的主要目标是 提升非洲的IS奖学金。此外，我们还将培养一支非洲信息系统工作队伍， 非洲癌症控制以及有效提供和综合癌症控制的前景 非洲卫生保健系统和社区内的干预措施。利用创新的框架， 会议将促进：（1）在非洲国家内部为以非洲为中心的信息系统战略调动资源;（2） 与主要利益相关者建立伙伴关系，开展有效的和文化上适当的信息系统研究;（3）发展 并在非洲成功开展基础设施服务研究。我们会议的基石--我们相信 最具创新性的方面是，最终的会议议程是基于癌症所确定的需求， 科学家和临床医生在非洲通过SWOT分析调查。
