This day, observed every year on 15 February, is dedicated to raising awareness about cancers affecting children, highlighting the importance of early detection, treatment, and care. It also honors the courage of children and adolescents fighting cancer, while advocating for better access to treatment, research funding, and support systems worldwide. The day unites governments, healthcare organizations, NGOs, families, and communities to educate people, reduce stigma, and improve survival rates for childhood cancer, which remains one of the leading causes of death among children if untreated.
