Sri Lanka has officially joined the Global Platform for Access to Childhood Cancer Medicines, a landmark global initiative led by the World Health Organization (WHO) and St. Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital, in partnership with UNICEF and the PAHO Strategic Fund, aimed at expanding access to affordable, quality-assured cancer medicines for children worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marking a significant milestone in strengthening childhood cancer care in the country, a Letter of Agreement between the Ministry of Health and Mass Media and the World Health Organization was signed. This agreement represents a major step forward in ensuring a more reliable and uninterrupted supply of essential childhood cancer medicines across Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through this collaboration, Sri Lanka will benefit from improved procurement mechanisms, enhanced supply chain management, and increased access to life-saving medicines that meet international quality standards. The initiative directly supports national efforts to improve treatment outcomes and reduce preventable deaths among children diagnosed with cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Health authorities emphasized that joining the Global Platform reflects Sri Lanka\u2019s strong commitment to protecting child health and aligning with global efforts to achieve equitable access to essential medicines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By transforming global partnerships into concrete national action, Sri Lanka is reinforcing its dedication to ensuring that every child with cancer has access to timely, effective, and affordable treatment, regardless of their background or location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
