  disparities are increasing globally\, and cancer care is no exception. Is
 sues of patient safety and quality of care coexist with challenges with ac
 cess and affordability. While this is a phenomenon worldwide\, the problem
 s are especially more in low- and middle-income countries. With the growin
 g burden of cancer in LMICs\, the relative inadequacy of infrastructure an
 d human resource\, it is imperative that these countries prepare with inno
 vative solutions to address these problems. The National Cancer Grid of In
 dia is a large network of 370+ cancer centres\, research institutions\, pa
 tient groups\, professional societies and charitable organizations created
  with a mandate of uniform standards of cancer care\, create adequate huma
 n resource\, and be a ready platform for collaborative multidisciplinary c
 ancer research. Increasingly\, these solutions have been opened up for oth
 er countries\, making this a truly global effort. In this talk\, Dr C S Pr
 amesh will describe the journey of the National Cancer Grid\, and it's dis
 ruptive solutions to address formidable challenges in cancer care in India
  that could well be a model to replicate in other geographies.\n
