3 SUMMARY General objectives EPIDERM aims to acquire and disseminate knowledge on skin cancers (SC) relating to their occurrence, risk factors, treatments and costs of illness to develop prevention and risk reduction strategies and best practice recommendations. It also aims to assess health literacy on SC and to help promote it by improving knowledge and awareness on three levels: general population, health practitioners and political authorities. Strategic relevance and contribution to the public health programme Currently there are no accurate data on non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC) at EU level and incidence rates are probably underestimated. In addition, the workload generated is also underestimated by health economists and health care managers. With the rise of SC incidence there is a need to develop effective public health strategies to combat the disease at EU level, contributing to better prevention as well as to dissemination of best treatment practices through training and exchange of knowledge. Synergy between EPIDERM partners with complementary skills will induce a significant multiplier effect, enabling the accumulation, evaluation and dissemination of knowledge. Methods and means The project will acquire and disseminate knowledge on SC by systematic collection and analysis of comparable data from dermatology clinics and cancer registries and will incorporate them to databases that will enable the partners to study the effects of policy interventions to reduce SC occurrence. By building an EPIDERM network infrastructure the project will assure dissemination of all the collected information and will facilitate knowledge transfer to all three target groups in focus. Expected outcomes period The project will improve understanding of SC epidemiology in EU as well as improve prevention by adapting to modern trends of behaviour and developing more effective approaches. Also promoting skin examination training for physicians and exchanging best practices on the treatment of SC will ensure a high level of health services and prevent health impairment. Page 3/8
