Periodic Reporting for period 1 - 4P-CAN (Personalized CANcer Primary Prevention research through Citizen Participation and digitally enabled social innovation)

Okres sprawozdawczy: 2023-05-01 do 2024-10-31

Podsumowanie kontekstu i ogólnych celów projektu

The 4P-CAN project stems from the necessity to comprehend the adoption barriers of the European Code Against Cancer (ECAC), especially within Eastern EU nations. Drawing from a personalized communication model and in-depth understanding of societal intricacies, the 4P-CAN project aspires to evolve into a pioneering citizen engagement model tailored for Cancer Primary Prevention (CPP) measures.

Prace wykonane od początku projektu do końca okresu sprawozdawczego oraz najważniejsze dotychczasowe rezultaty

DIAGNOSTIC: The initial stages involve WP2's comprehensive assessment of CPP legislation and policies. This is juxtaposed between Central and Eastern European (CEE) consortium countries and Western EU nations. Preliminary research into socio-economic determinants, informational contexts, and attitudes towards ECAC is also being charted in WP3 and WP4.

APPLICATION: Insights from the DIAGNOSTIC phase are intended to be channeled into creating targeted public health communication campaigns under WP4. The project also foresees the development of living-labs (WP5), where personal network analysis will be emphasized, granting citizens a participative role in shaping the CPP landscape.

DIGITALIZATION: An anticipated outcome is the creation of country-specific dashboards integrating data from WP2, WP3, and WP4. Concurrently, the project aims to conceptualize the 4P-CANcer algorithm.

CO-CREATION: The blueprint for the upcoming stages includes a focus on WP6 and WP7, steering towards co-creation of policy recommendations and education. This multidisciplinary approach is expected to yield evidence-backed solutions tailored to the studied countries.

At its core, 4P-CAN is geared towards understanding both macro and micro-level barriers in cancer primary prevention within the CEE Consortium countries. From framing legislation around lifestyle factors to delving into the repercussions of various pollution sources, the project has its lens on comprehensive areas.

Innowacyjność oraz oczekiwany potencjalny wpływ (w tym dotychczasowe znaczenie społeczno-gospodarcze i szersze implikacje społeczne projektu)

Personalized Citizen-Centric Prevention: Drawing from the insights of Objectives 2 and 4, 4P-CAN aspires to innovate with a citizen-centric primary cancer prevention model. Using methods like personal networks analysis (PNAs) and personalized communication, it places citizens at the core of decision-making. The project's application, especially through living labs in Romania and Bulgaria and targeted communication campaigns, seeks to refine public awareness and engagement strategies.

In-depth Understanding of CPP Determinants: By conducting a multi-level policy and legislation assessment, 4P-CAN aims to provide comprehensive insights into the determinants of CPP, especially in CEE countries significantly affected by health inequalities. The initiative envisions consistent stakeholder engagement throughout the project’s duration to ensure a holistic approach to promoting healthy lifestyles.

Revitalizing the European Code Against Cancer (ECAC): One of the standout impacts is the anticipated contribution to the 5th edition of ECAC. With in-depth research into the complex environments of the CEE region, 4P-CAN will provide invaluable insights from countries like Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Moldova, and Ukraine. This project’s comprehensive approach sets the foundation for a specialized Regional Code Against Cancer for the CEE area, bringing forth novel tools for its adoption. It signifies a commitment to ensuring a broader audience, including citizens, decision-makers, European stakeholders, and medical professionals, benefit from a refined ECAC.
