Dr Angela Flynn attends the UNIC Thematic Conference in Istanbul, Turkey.

The 2nd UNIC Thematic Conference was held in Istanbul, Turkey from 17th-19th June 2026 and was hosted by Koç University.
The conference was titled: “Institutions in Transition: Justice, Security, and Well-Being in Post-Industrial Cities” and it examined how institutions are responding to the challenges of growing inequalities, uneven access to health and social care, and the pressures of increasingly diverse and superdiverse communities.

It was attended by UNIC member universities across Europe and a significant delegation from UCC was in attendance. Dr Flynn presented her paper, Understanding issues of inclusion in health care in Ireland, in a session under the theme of ‘Engaged Research for Every Day Urban Life’. Her paper reported work she led alongside colleagues in the Inclusion Health Research Group (IHRG). This large scale IHRG research project aimed to explore the health care experiences of people who find themselves marginalised.  The paper presented in Istanbul focussed on the challenges of access when undertaking engaged research with marginalised communities and the methodological challenges therein.

Other members of the IHRG team involved in this project were: Dr Eoin Coughlan, Mr Ciaran Evans, Prof Pauline Frizelle, Dr Mairead Harding, Dr Helen Kelly, Prof Geraldine Lee, Prof Mark McEntee, Dr Ciara O’Toole

Today, on National Cancer Survivors Day, the School of Nursing & Midwifery at University College Cork celebrates the strength, resilience, and courage of cancer survivors and recognises the unique journey that each person experiences.

Cancer is not a single disease but more than 100 different conditions, each affecting individuals and families in different ways. Survivorship extends beyond treatment and encompasses the physical, emotional, social, and practical challenges that many people may face during and after cancer.

As a School committed to advancing healthcare, education, and research, we support continued efforts to improve cancer care, expand survivorship services, and promote policies that enhance quality of life for all those living with and beyond cancer.

We invite you to follow us on our LinkedIn profile where we will be highlighting research, initiatives, and projects undertaken within the School that contribute to our understanding of cancer survivorship and support the survivorship movement. Through research, education, and partnership, we aim to contribute to evidence-informed approaches that help survivors not only live beyond cancer, but thrive.

On this National Cancer Survivors Day, we honour all survivors and reaffirm our commitment to supporting research and innovation that improves lives.
