Cancer rates across European Union member states are rising, with a 2.3 percent increase recorded between 2020 and 2022, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer projecting further growth over the next two decades. The increase highlights disparities among EU nations despite their advanced public health systems, with Europeans accounting for approximately 25 percent of global cancer cases despite representing less than 10 percent of the world's population.
