Prostate Cancer
"Together with the brightest minds in research, we aim to achieve significant breakthroughs in the hope of beating prostate cancer. Our disruptive funding approach identifies revolutionary ways to accelerate health outcomes by creating strong, global collaborative teams." Dr. Colleen Nelson, Global Scientific Chair.
Men's Health
"One Mo can help change the face of men’s health through the powerful conversations created globally during Movember. Men have the chance to confidently discuss men’s health with people around them, resulting in men taking action early, helping change and save lives." Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs
Mental health and suicide prevention
“The number of men taking their own lives around the world is one of the biggest challenges of our time. Movember is working to ensure all men and boys look after their mental health and are comfortable to seek help when they’re struggling.”
Brendan Maher, Global Director, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Testicular Cancer
“Despite being the 2nd most common cancer in young men, testicular cancer is often a forgotten cancer due to early detection and treatment. Our projects look at underinvested areas such as improving access to healthcare services and treatment options for relapse” Paul Villanti, Executive Director, Programs.

About the project

To produce high quality, accurate Patient Education Materials that are easy to read and understand. Material is written by Patient Education Materials Editor who is also a registered low literacy tutor.
Material is reviewed internally by Cancer Information Service Nurses and externally by Health Care Professionals specialising in men's cancers, in order to improve the quality of information provided.
Booklets, fact sheets and web material are reviewed at least every 2 years.
These educational resources are given to patients, family members and friends when they call the Irish Cancer Society Cancer Information Service or visit a Daffodil Centre. It is also available via the Irish Cancer Society website.

Expert clinical reviewers were engaged from outside the Irish Cancer Society to ensure high quality, accurate information is provided.
