dc.description.abstractIn order to reach out and offer optimum access for children with cancer across each country the development of networks of paediatric oncology units rather than just a single centre in one city has been the practice in high income countries over the last 30–40 years and is now being considered by developing countries. At a workshop bringing delegates from 4 countries in Africa and Asia to share their concepts, ideas and experiences of developing such networks and how to move forward, it was recommended that there should be a Hub (referral centre), shared-care centre hospitals, a real emphasis on good communication, ability to train staff within the network and a focus on ensuring that each hospital and country’s government must be supportive for it to be successful.en_US
