Lerești Living Lab

INOMED presented a workshop titled "Mapping Cancer Risk: Network Analysis and Art-Based Community Engagement in Rural Living Labs" at the European Cancer Mission Fair, exploring network approaches to prevention and community-engaged visualisations.

The policy dialogue continued at the Embassy of Romania to Belgium, where partners reflected on the Brussels discussions and the next steps for equitable cancer prevention in Eastern Europe.

Held at the European Parliament in Bruxelles, this event focused on how to connect policy priorities with practical implementation to scale equitable cancer prevention across Eastern Europe.

The 4P-CAN consortium meeting in Lyon was followed by the Art of Network exhibition, where stories from people living in Lerești were represented through artworks created from collected data. These pieces illustrate how citizen engagement, community collaboration, and data sharing can transform approaches to primary cancer prevention.

Proud to have been part of the 6th European Citizen Science Association (ECSA) Conference 2026 in Oulu, Finland, dedicated to "Citizen Science: Bridging Centre and Periphery." We organized a roundtable on how citizen science can help reconfigure health systems, with a focus on Eastern Europe and underserved communities.
