Last Thursday 24 February the ICBCC Policy Strategy Working Group met to discuss on the Policy Strategy to address the specific impact of the pandemic on immunocompromised blood cancer patients (both acute and chronic) in a workshop-style setting. The meeting was facilitated by our partner Patvocates.<\/p>\n
During the 2 hour workshop the group managed to\u00a0define the actionable objectives from the impact statement<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0define the primary stakeholder<\/strong>s and the\u00a0level of lobbying needed<\/strong>\u00a0(international\/country level) for each of the objectives. In order to finalise the policy strategy and prioritise the creation of the tools and with the aim of eliciting a broad representative sample, we want to ask\u00a0all statement endorsers\u00a0<\/strong>to\u00a0please vote their top 5 priorities when it comes to objectives<\/strong>. You can do this by adding votes in the Online Tool Groupmap which you can access via the following link:\u00a0https:\/\/join.groupmap.com\/413-EC5-D36<\/a>.\u00a0Please submit your votes\u00a0by end of business Thursday 3rd of March<\/u><\/strong>.<\/p>\n As final step, we ask you as well to add suggestions on\u00a0which tools you would consider most useful for you for each of the actions<\/strong>\u00a0(template letters, social media images, flyers, etc.). To do so, you can\u00a0add comments in each of the boxes.<\/strong><\/p>\n Your input will help us provide tools that really suit your needs.<\/strong><\/p>\n
