Estimates based on a broad range of scientific evidence indicate that more than 50 percent of cancers can be prevented. Approximately 50 million lives worldwide could be saved this decade by implementing known, effective preventive strategies. However, disseminating these life-saving prevention messages and enabling sustainable, cancer control initiatives requires sophisticated, cooperative efforts.

The mission of the Cancer Prevention & Control Moon Shot^® platform is to accelerate the development, dissemination, and amplification of evidence-based strategies, community services, policy interventions, and knowledge targeting measurable reductions in cancer incidence and mortality at a population level. The platform is guided by the ideology that research advances in cancer medicine must be shared widely and translated, practically and rapidly, into health systems, communities and daily life globally. By working closely with the Moon Shot teams, we're ensuring that our prevention strategies impact population-level health outcomes on a transformative scale. Our key initiatives include:

• Be Well Communities™
• EndTobacco®
• Increasing HPV Vaccination Rates
• Preventing Cervical Cancer in Low-Resource Settings
  
• Preventing Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer
• Project ECHO® Superhub for Oncology
  
• Reducing Exposure to Ultraviolet Radiation
