Houda Belfekih, Board Member at Young SIOG (YSIOG), shared on LinkedIn:
“SIOG – International Society of Geriatric Oncology is more than a scientific society. It is a truly human experience.
Beyond the scientific sessions, the research, and the knowledge shared, what makes SIOG truly special is its people.
It is about meaningful encounters, inspiring exchanges, shared enthusiasm, genuine connections, and a common commitment to improving cancer care for older adults.
SIOG brings together people from different backgrounds, countries, and healthcare systems, united by one important mission: ensuring that older adults with cancer receive the care, attention, and dignity they deserve.
To my colleagues across Africa and the Middle East: this is an invitation to be part of this journey!
Join the SIOG community, bring your perspectives, share your experiences, contribute your ideas, and let your voices be heard.
Our regions have unique challenges, but also tremendous potential to shape the future of geriatric oncology.
Together, through collaboration, education, advocacy, and shared commitment, we can make a real difference and improve cancer care for older people across our regions.
Because geriatric oncology is not just about treating cancer in older adults, it is about caring for the person behind the disease.
Let’s connect, collaborate, and move forward together”
