The collaboration includes the free use of the auditorium's facilities, which will host the event, as well as a free urban transport service for Lugo residents wishing to attend. The bus will depart from La Medusa at 9:00 AM and return at the end of the day.
The mayor, Elena Candia, thanked the organization for "its effort in designing a program of such interest and relevance that will attract people from other provinces to our municipality." She highlighted the opportunity to hear voices such as those of Dr. José Carlos Hernández Fernández, world paracanoe champion Nicolás Martínez Adega, and Dr. Marisol Soengas, a leader in cancer research and a patient.
Candia also emphasized the importance of the four planned round tables on new treatments, work and cancer, patients and side effects, as well as the four simultaneous workshops on physical exercise, sexuality, caregiver support, and nutrition, in which active participation from people with cancer and their families is expected.
