Despite their importance, NCCPs face several challenges that can hinder their effectiveness:
Limited Resources: Many countries, especially low- and middle-income, struggle with insufficient financial and human resources. Healthcare Inequality: Disparities in healthcare access can limit the reach of cancer control efforts. Data Limitations: Inadequate cancer registries and data systems can impede accurate monitoring and evaluation. Political and Social Barriers: Political instability and social stigma surrounding cancer may affect program implementation.
