We are proud to be the the Access to Oncology Medicines (ATOM) Coaltion Initiative Focal Point organization in Uganda.
The ATOM Coalition is a global initiative led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) in partnership with more than 45 organisations across civil society, public health, and private sectors.
The ATOM Coalition Initiative was established to address one of the most pressing challenges in global cancer care: the lack of reliable access to quality cancer medicines and diagnostics in low- and lower-middle-income countries (LLMICs).
As the ATOM Focal Point in Uganda, ACCR convenes stakeholders, coordinates efforts, and ensures the coalition’s work translates into sustainable impact for patients. ACCR works closely with a diverse range of partners to conduct a comprehensive country-level assessment of current capacity and needs across the oncology medicines pathway, from registration and market authorization to delivery of medicines to patients.
Together, we ensure that the country assessment is robust, evidence-based, and aligned with national priorities, ultimately informing practical actions to improve access to cancer medicines in Uganda.
About the ATOM Coalition
About the ATOM Coalition
The Access to Oncology Medicines (ATOM) Coalition Initiative supports national efforts to remove systemic barriers across the cancer care continuum, ensuring meaningful impact for patients. Globally led by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), ATOM brings together governments, technical agencies, civil society, and private sector partners.
Key Activities in Uganda:
Country-led coordination for equitable access to cancer medicines.
Stakeholder engagement across government, civil society, clinicians, and patient organizations.
Capacity building and data-driven implementation.
True progress in cancer care demands that we bridge research with real-world access, that we design innovative solutions for all people, not just a few.
We thank all partners for their leadership and collaboration and we look forward to continued engagement.
Science can change lives, but only when it reaches the people who need it most. Discovery alone does not change the world—we must turn evidence into solutions, and solutions into action.
