Light Australia Green Initiative

The Inaugural CCF Australia Annual Conference
September 2025 or 2026

Helping Patients and Their Professionals Help Themselves

The inaugural CCF Australia Annual Conference is set to redefine engagement in bile duct and bile-related cancer care. As a uniquely patient-led event, this conference places patients and caregivers at the centre of every initiative, ensuring their voices and responsibilities are integrated at all levels—from healthcare delivery to research development.

Our Approach: Integrity in Patient and Professional Empowerment

Our approach is grounded in the integrity of patient empowerment, where we believe: Empower the Patient – Increase Their Survival; Empower Their Community – Exponentially Empower Survivorship. To fully achieve this, we strive to empower the science, research, healthcare, medical, and allied professionals who underpin this vision.

Built on Enhanced Response Strategies
The conference is built on equipping and empowering both patients and the professionals that serve them, focusing on developing and sharing Enhanced Response Strategies—actionable plans that enable patients to understand and effectively engage in their treatment journey. This approach unites patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, allied professionals, researchers, and industry leaders to foster collaboration and drive real breakthroughs in survival outcomes.

A Movement, Not Just a Meeting
Our mission is to foster understanding and active collaboration among both patients and professionals, ensuring every stakeholder takes accountability and contributes to the common goal: enhancing the patient’s capacity to respond effectively. Patients are not merely passengers; they are co-pilots, actively shaping their treatment pathways alongside healthcare professionals, industry experts, and researchers.

This conference is more than a gathering—it’s a movement towards impactful, patient-centred cancer response strategies that drive genuine improvements in survival and quality of life.
