Bridging Global Expertise for National Cancer Care
Our Unconditional Alliance with the DMC Alumni Network UK
At the Cancer Consortium of Bangladesh (CCOB) and TACHRC CIC UK, we believe that transforming national oncology outcomes requires a unified, world-class approach. To drive this vision forward, we are proud to announce our official strategic partnership with the Dhaka Medical College (DMC) Alumni Network (UK).
This alliance brings together leading British-Bangladeshi clinical pioneers—spanning neurosurgery, medical oncology, clinical psychiatry, and public health—to actively co-develop, govern, and scale Project Pathfinder across both the United Kingdom and Bangladesh.
Key Pillars of the Alliance
- Cross-Border Knowledge Transfer: Establishing a direct pipeline between UK NHS best practices and local clinical execution through joint workshops and academic sittings.
- Bilateral Medical Education: Designing a comprehensive “Cancer Navigation Fellowship” curriculum to train frontline community health workers and nurses.
- Peer-to-Peer Clinical Mentorship: Providing active advisory support and collaborative research frameworks for local medical officers handling digital triage referral pathways.
- Addressing Diaspora Disparities (UK Track): Collaborating on comparative health systems research to build culturally competent digital health navigation models for minority and South Asian communities within the UK.
Document Transparency: Signed Letter of Intent (LOI)
To reflect our shared philanthropic, non-commercial, and voluntary commitment to health equity, our leadership teams have executed a formal, unconditional framework agreement.
“Together, we are moving cancer care away from late-stage crisis management and turning it into a fast-track, digital, life-saving network.”
