The conference will bring together sarcoma patient advocates from across the globe for three days of learning, collaboration, and exchange, including medical and research updates, advocacy and capacity-building sessions, and opportunities to connect with colleagues from the international sarcoma community.

As you know a limited number of travel grants are available to help cover travel and hotel costs for eligible SPAGN member organisations attending the conference.

There are only a few grants left, we strongly encourage organisations interested in receiving support to apply as soon as possible before the new deadline of 15 March.

Submission deadline extended to 15 March 2026

We have already received many inspiring and impactful advocacy projects from across our network, highlighting the incredible work being done throughout the global sarcoma community.

If your organisation would like to be part of this inspiring group of initiatives, we warmly encourage you to submit your project.
