#ECCAM2025 

ECCAM, which stands for European Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, was initiated by Digestive Cancers Europe (DiCE) in March 2008 to promote awareness and preventive measures for this deadly disease. With Colorectal Cancer (CRC) rates expected to increase, especially among younger Europeans, this awareness month serves as a crucial opportunity to communicate key facts and motivate action action.

Many incorrectly believe that CRC only affects older people. However, recent health statistics in Europe reveal that this condition is decreasing among those aged 70 and above while increasing among those aged 30 and younger. We must address CRC earlier by engaging a broader and younger audience during ECCAM.

This year, DiCE is adopting a social-first approach to engage with Europeans and make a significant impact with CRC information that simply cannot be overlooked.

So, mark your calendars for 🗓️ 27 February 2025 at ⏰ 10 AM CET and join us for the launch of #ECCAM2025. This event will focus on crucial discussions about #ColorectalCancer, and your participation will be invaluable in enriching our dialogue and efforts.
