Twinning in paediatric oncology - an African experience
D C Stefan, S Shalongo, R Ribeiro
Abstract
Developing twinning programmes in paediatric oncology between African countries is possible, encouraging and rewarding. The development of centres of excellence in Africa could serve as a means of disseminating the knowledge and channelling international support for the surrounding countries in their effort to cure children’s cancer.
