European Cancer Nursing Day (ECND) 2025 is an opportunity for cancer nurses across Europe to showcase their creative contributions to cancer nursing. The ECND theme this year is Cancer Nursing Beyond Borders. We celebrate the power of nursing in transcending borders to create a brighter future for cancer patients worldwide.
The Aim of This Competition
This competition is an opportunity to highlight the invaluable contributions that cancer nurses make in improving patient outcomes, fostering global collaboration, and pushing the boundaries of care. By sharing their stories, nurses can inspire others, showcase their dedication, and lead the way in advancing cancer care across diverse settings.
The competition is open to all registered cancer nurses across Europe—as an individual or as a team.
Please note: Consent in principle must be given by all persons featured in photos or videos, and more specifically for the photo or video to be shared on EONS platforms.
