In 2016, World Cancer Day started a three-year campaign under the tagline ‘We can, I can,’ which explored the power of collective and individual actions to reduce the impact of cancer. The theme from 2019 to 2021 was ‘I Am and I will’, which seeks to counter the negative attitude and fatalistic belief that nothing can be done about cancer and instead promotes how our personal actions can be powerful and impactful. The campaign theme for 2022-2024 is ‘Close the Gap’, which focuses on eliminating the difference in access to cancer care services faced by populations of various groups of country, income, age, gender, ethnicity etc.
