overview Each year, over 1,000 children and young people in Australia are diagnosed with cancer. While survival rates have improved, families still face complex medical and emotional challenges.

Access to clear and consistent information is not always equal, particularly for families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

To address these gaps, ANZCHOG’s Equitable Pathways Project will create:

  1. An open-access Education Hub for families and carers
  2. A member-only Resource Hub for healthcare professionals

Project Goals

These platforms will bring together trusted, evidence-based materials and help us identify where new resources are needed.

Support Informed choices

Provide accessible, evidence-based materials to help families make informed decisions throughout the clinical trial process.

Improve Communication & Consistency

Equip clinicians and nurses with consistent, validated tools to facilitate confident and compassionate discussions about trial participation.

Empower the Nursing Community

Connect specialist paediatric oncology nurses across all children’s cancer centres to share ideas, build consistent resources, and make sure every family gets the same quality of care.

Create Tailored Resources

Develop new materials and guidelines that explain disease-specific trials and treatment options in language families can understand.

Developed in close collaboration with people with lived experience, families, carers and healthcare professionals, this project ensures that every outcome is shaped by those it serves.

Survey Help us make clinical trial information easier to find and understand!

We’re bringing together children and young people diagnosed with cancer, their families, carers and kin, to share their experiences finding and understanding information about clinical trials.

  • What information is most important to you?
  • When and how you’d like to receive it?
  • What makes it hard to find trial information?
