The European Cancer Inequalities Registry (ECIR) is a flagship initiative of the Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan . It aims to highlight disparities, gaps and inequalities between and within EU countries (EU27 plus Iceland and Norway). The ECIR consists of three elements: 1) A Data Tool to explore and compare indicators on cancer. 2) Cancer Country Profiles, published in even years to help Countries understand their strengths and weaknesses in cancer prevention and care. 3) Analytical Reports, published in odd years, to compare a Country’s performance at EU level. Country Profiles and Analytical Reports are prepared by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). This roadmap focuses on the planned developments of the ECIR Data Tool.
