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 根据世界卫生组织的说法，非洲非通信疾病的发病率和死亡率 到2030年将超过可传播疾病的疾病。尽管非洲在控制癌症方面面临一些挑战，但 实施科学领域（IS）在非洲为癌症控制提供了希望。定义为“研究 促进基于证据的实践，干预措施和政策的采用和整合的方法 常规医疗保健和公共卫生环境以改善对人口健康的影响”，对于解决 非洲癌症的伯恩伯恩不成比例。不幸的是，非洲没有急需的研究 IS的劳动力。非洲非洲癌症研究与培训组织，非洲 行为研究（ABER）中心，非洲癌症回声和国际癌症研究 合作伙伴关系（ICRP）已合作，在非洲创建了针对癌症控制的实施科学（ISC2- 非洲）网络。我们提议举行一次ISC2-非洲的就职会议，以每两年一次的时间举行 主动脉国际癌症会议会议。 ISC2-非洲会议的主要目标是 提升非洲的科学。此外，我们将发展一个非洲人是劳动力，将带来独特的 解决非洲癌症控制以及有效提供和整合癌症控制的观点 非洲医疗保健系统和社区内的干预措施。利用创新框架， 会议将促进：（1）非洲国家以非洲为中心的资源是策略； （2） 与主要利益相关者的合作伙伴关系是有效且在文化上适当的是研究； （3）发展 并成功实施了非洲的研究。我们会议的基石 - 我们相信 最具创新性的方面 - 最终会议议程是基于癌症所确定的需求 非洲的科学家和临床医生通过SWOT分析调查。
