We work to assist patients as well as other individuals and organizations in the cancer care and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) space by building their knowledge and skills to meet the challenges of eradicating cancer, NCDs and poverty. ICIF's mission and vision is geared towards establishing a solid reputation for innovation in development practices as well as effective management and implementation of life-changing activities.

Underlying these trends is a continued need to empower individuals and communities through education and training to upskill and expand their capabilities as well as development of social capital.
