Resource Constraints: Limited funding and resources can hinder the implementation of planned activities. Health System Infrastructure: Inadequate healthcare infrastructure and workforce shortages can affect service delivery. Policy and Regulatory Barriers: Lack of supportive policies and regulations may limit access to essential services and medications. Cultural and Social Factors: Cultural beliefs and social stigma surrounding cancer can affect patient engagement and access to care. Data Limitations: Insufficient data on cancer incidence and outcomes can impede effective planning and evaluation.
