The European Cancer Information System collects cancer statistics from EU countries to improve prevention and care programmes.
ECIS promotes research as well as public-health decision-making in the field of cancer and serves as a point of reference and information for European citizens. It enables the exploration of geographical patterns and temporal trends of incidence, mortality and survival data across Europe for the major cancer entities.
Contrary to common belief, there is still a lack of information on where and under what conditions many people live, especially in developing countries.
