Disparities in psychosocial cancer care: A report from the International Federation of Psycho ‐Oncology Societies

ConclusionThe development and implementation of psycho‐oncology is fragmented and undeveloped, particularly in some parts of the world. More effort is needed at national level by strong coalitions with oncology societies, better national research initiatives, cancer plans and patient advocacy, as well as by stronger partnership with international organizations (e.g. WHO, UICC).
