The Cancer Society's Research and Innovation Strategy 2026–2031 has been approved by the Board and is published here ahead of the formal launch to support researchers preparing applications for the upcoming grant round.

This strategy represents a significant evolution in our approach - more focused, more ambitious, and centred on equity and system change. We encourage researchers to read it carefully when considering how their work aligns with our priorities. A public launch will follow in the coming weeks.
