The IPOS Survivorship Special Interest Group (SIG) was established in June 2020

The Group has been very active in the last 12 months or so. We have:

• produced information about common challenges during cancer survivorship and collected tools and resources at https://ipos-society.org/survivorship-special-interest-group
• hosted two webinars: on managing sleep problems, and about health behaviours and fear of cancer recurrence (the latter in partnership with the FORwards SIG) – recordings available on the IPOS website
• completed an audit of survivorship-focussed presentations from the last four World Congress meetings
• begun an audit of national cancer control plans to ascertain national positions on psycho-oncology and survivorship
• commenced work on an international survey of current psycho-oncology practices in the post-treatment survivorship phase
