Our values

The principles behind our work

Six values guide how IFDO works with its community and partners.

  • Patient-centricity

    We put patient outcomes, safety and experience first.

  • Innovation

    We champion novel approaches — from AI algorithms to digital therapeutics — while insisting on evidence and validation.

  • Collaboration

    We connect stakeholders across disciplines and borders, recognising that complex problems demand collective effort.

  • Ethics & privacy

    We uphold strict standards for data security, patient privacy and ethical AI use in healthcare.

  • Inclusivity

    We aim to ensure that digital oncology benefits all patients, addressing disparities in access to technology-driven care.

  • Education

    We believe in continuously educating clinicians and researchers in digital skills, fostering a culture of lifelong learning.
