**PURPOSE** **OF** **POSITION**

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization. The objective of the IARC is to promote international collaboration in cancer research.

The Environment and Lifestyle Epidemiology “ENV” Branch focuses on environmental and lifestyle risk factors, which knowledge and understanding are critical for effective primary prevention of cancer due to their modifiable nature. Branch objective 5, “To enable cancer prevention and control through research evidence translation”, catalyzes the knowledge on risk factors and related primary prevention interventions into cancer prevention recommendations and tools to different target groups: individuals, policymakers, and health professionals and advocates.

The World Code Against Cancer Framework is based on the synthesis and evaluation of the evidence on lifestyle, environmental, occupational, and infectious risk factors and effective medical interventions, to translate this evidence base into recommendations on primary and secondary prevention of cancer at the individual and population levels. Under the World Code Against Cancer Framework and the team’s area of work, the incumbent will mainly be participating in:
1) The 4P-CAN project (Personalized CANcer Primary Prevention research through Citizen Participation and digitally enabled social innovation) to deliver new personalized tools for primary prevention of cancer in Central and Eastern European countries; and

2) Dissemination and implementation activities of the soon to be launched Latin-America and the Caribbean Code Against Cancer 1st edition.

**DESCRIPTION** **OF** **DUTIES**

Under the direct supervision of a staff scientist and overall guidance of the head of ENV, the incumbent will provide scientific input to design and develop implementation research studies to evaluating the impact of cancer prevention strategies at individual, health provider and organizational level:
1. Design, develop and analyse hybrid effectiveness-implementation studies, together with local partners (e.g., in Central and Eastern Europe and Latin-American), to evaluate the “real-world” impact of primary prevention strategies in specific target groups (e.g., general population, policy/decision-makers, health professionals, health advocates), including baseline measurements.

2. Liaise with the internal and external collaborators of ECAC5 project (update of the European Code Against Cancer) on the real-time implementation of ECAC5 recommendations (at individual and policymaker level) in Central and Eastern Europe provided through the 4P-CAN project.

3. Contribute to developing cancer primary prevention performance indicators for the multi-level assessment of policies, legislation, and regulatory frameworks for cancer primary prevention.

4. Perform literature reviews of the evidence when needed.

5. Coordinate activities with the internal and external collaborators.

6. Write relevant grants related to the team’s projects.
