A Government of Odisha initiative building reliable cancer evidence for every district, so prevention, care and resources can be guided by the true burden of cancer across the state.
Building a complete and reliable picture of cancer across Odisha—so evidence can guide prevention, care, policy and public health investment.
Establish Population-Based Cancer Registries in all 30 districts of Odisha to understand the true burden of cancer across the state.
Consistent population-level surveillance will include urban, rural and underserved communities. Comparable district records will reveal geographic patterns and guide focused action.
Generate dependable district-level data on cancer incidence, mortality, prevalence and survival, analysed by sex, age group and cancer type.
Standardised collection and validation will make trends comparable across districts and over time. These insights will identify priority populations and help health teams measure outcomes.
Contribute OSPBCR findings to national cancer registry data, supporting the development of informed cancer policies at the national level.
Sharing harmonised data will ensure Odisha's cancer patterns are represented in national estimates. State evidence can shape broader prevention, screening, treatment and research priorities.
Aid cancer control policy and resource allocation by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, Government of Odisha, and strengthen ongoing cancer control programmes.
Reliable evidence will direct funding, workforce and services to areas of greatest need. Regular monitoring will show what works and where programmes require improvement.
A Government of Odisha project supported by leading national institutions in cancer care, research and science education.
