Support Construction of Binaytara's Cancer Hospital in Nepal
Event Description
The Summit on Cancer Health Disparities 2027 (SCHD27) convenes oncology professionals, researchers, health-system leaders, policymakers, patient advocates, and global health experts to advance practical solutions for equitable cancer care. Guided by the theme From Innovation to Implementation: Scaling Equitable Cancer Care, the two-day Summit moves beyond documenting disparities to measuring them, understanding their root causes, and implementing interventions that improve access, quality, affordability, patient experience, and outcomes.
Day 1, Defining & Measuring Cancer Care Equity, establishes a rigorous, data-driven foundation, anchored by the introduction of the Binaytara Global Cancer Care Equity Observatory and its Global Cancer Care Equity Index. Sessions examine disparities across cancer types and the care continuum — including screening, molecular testing, clinical trials, financial toxicity, and artificial intelligence — with input from leading epidemiologists, health policy experts, and clinicians.
Day 2, Implementing & Scaling Equitable Cancer Care, shifts the focus to action. Grounded in implementation science, sessions address what it takes to move evidence-based, equitable care from pilot to practice — covering care delivery redesign, community-based clinical trials, advanced practice provider models, and payment policy. The program is designed for attendees working directly on these problems, from bedside to boardroom to policy table.

About Binaytara
Binaytara is a leading global oncology 501(c)(3) nonprofit, dedicated to reducing cancer health disparities around the world. Founded in 2007 by Tara Shah and Dr. Binay Shah, our mission is to improve access to cancer care, enhance continuing medical education (CME), and foster implementation science research in hematology and oncology, thereby reducing the global burden of cancer.
As the largest cancer conference organizer in the US, we impact thousands of doctors and oncology/hematology practitioners who attend our conferences to stay current on cutting-edge treatments for their patients. Binaytara is an accredited CME provider committed to improving patient outcomes through high-quality, independent CME activities for physicians, pharmacists, and nurses.
As a leader in global oncology, we have partnered with local government and health organizations in Nepal to operate the only cancer hospital in Madhesh Province, deliver cervical cancer screenings, provide nurse training, and establish the first bone marrow transplant center in the country. In India, we have partnered with government institutions to establish hospice and palliative care programs in Madhya Pradesh. We are beginning construction in 2024 on a comprehensive 200-bed cancer center in Janakpur, Nepal that will dramatically improve access to cancer care in Nepal and surrounding communities.
We invite companies interested in improving equitable access to cancer care to support our efforts.
