SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The single-source award will focus on
evaluations of the evidence on the effectiveness of preventive
interventions that may reduce cancer incidence or mortality in the
United States and other countries.
IARC is uniquely qualified for this award because no other
organization, within the United States or elsewhere, convenes
internationally recognized experts to rigorously evaluate scientific
evidence on the effectiveness of preventive interventions that may
reduce cancer incidence or mortality.
IARC is the specialized cancer agency of the World Health
Organization. To accomplish its mission, the IARC Handbooks on Cancer
Prevention program provides definitive, independent evidence-based
evaluations of cancer-preventive interventions.
The program was established more than 20 years ago to identify and
assess which interventions can prevent cancer or detect cancer at an
early stage, to reduce cancer cases worldwide and save lives. The
handbooks are regarded as trustworthy sources of information by
national and international health agencies around the world.
Summary of the Award
Recipient: The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
Purpose of the Award: The purpose of this award is to provide a
five-year grant to the International Agency for Research on Cancer
(IARC) to provide support for the IARC Handbooks on Cancer Prevention
program and ensure its continuity over five years. The outcomes
include: Expanded dissemination of information about effective
strategies and interventions to reduce cancer risk; and expanded
utilization of the IARC Handbooks evaluations among health agencies to
develop evidence-based interventions or policy recommendations for
reducing cancer risk at the population level.
Amount of Award: $200,000 in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2022 funds,
with a total estimated $1,000,000 for a five-year period of
performance, subject to availability of funds.
