Closing the Implementation Gap: Cancer Prevention in Limited-Resource Settings

Translating proven cancer prevention and control interventions into real-world impact requires more than evidence. It requires methods for putting that evidence to work in the settings where it is hardest to deliver. This talk addresses how health promotion and implementation science can address that challenge, using examples from US and global limited-resource settings. Dr. Fernandez examines common pitfalls that stall progress, how tools, frameworks, and engagement approaches can be adapted to local context, and how implementation, policy, and capacity building can be planned for scale-up and long-term sustainment in the U.S. and globally.
