2. There has never been a more important time to accelerate the fight against cancer. Left unchecked, the worldwide cancer burden is expected to reach 26 million new diagnoses and 17 million deaths by the year 2030. Most rapid increases occurring in low- and middle-income countries. However, 30-40% of cancers can be prevented, and one-third of cancers can be cured through early diagnosis and treatment. We have the knowledge and the tools to make a significant difference today The United Nations held the first ever meeting on cancer and the other NCDs in September last year. Global momentum is growing to seek a solution now. Member State targets and indicators are now in preparation. Member states will be held to account by the United Nations We can deliver the World Cancer Declaration Targets
