European public consultation reinforces the importance of understanding challenges faced by cancer survivors

The European Commission launched a public consultation, open until 27 October 2026, on fair access to financial services for cancer survivors as part of Europe's Beating Cancer Plan and the Right to be Forgotten. Simultaneously, the Clinical Research and Biomedical Innovation Agency (AICIB) launched a national survey under the National Cancer Hub-PT to map difficulties faced by survivors in accessing financial products, employment, and healthcare following the approval of Law No. 14/2026 of 27 April.
