New Education Hub for rare and less common cancers

Rare Cancers Australia, as part of the Australian Cancer Nursing and Navigation Program, has launched a new Education Hub, a free online platform offering practical, evidence-based learning modules for healthcare professionals and carers supporting people with rare and less common cancers. 

The first module, focused on gynaecological cancers, most of which are classed as rare or less common, includes a four-part video series and downloadable resources covering: 

  • Latest evidence on diagnosis, treatment, and care 
  • Emerging technologies and research 
  • Key challenges and disparities in care 
  • Importance of multidisciplinary, patient-centred support 

Participants will gain insights into the burden of gynaecological cancers in Australia and learn how to deliver more equitable, compassionate care. Facilitated presentations to groups are also available through online bookings. 

Future modules currently under development will cover thoracic, male reproductive, sarcoma, and lower digestive rare and less common cancers.
