Mapping Existing Cancer Patient Navigation Systems

Led by the Free University of Brussels (VUB), EU-NAVIGATE is a Horizon Europe project aiming to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a Navigation Intervention (NavCare-EU) for older people with cancer and their family caregivers in different health care systems in Europe based on the existing and successfully tested Nav-Care intervention from Canada.  

Within EU-NAVIGATE, Work Package 7 focuses on mapping existing navigation for cancer patients across the EU and beyond, led by Jagiellonian University in Poland. This landmark mapping exercise will inform the project’s recommendations on wider implementation of cancer patient navigation in national health systems moving forward.
