Nearly half a million Europeans live with a rare cancer. Despite the rarity of each individual cancer type, rare cancers represent in total about 20% of all cancer cases, including all cancers in children. The European Action Against Rare Cancers, a joint initiative by several leading organisations in the sector, launched an international petition that urges policy-makers and all other relevant stakeholders to give high priority to quality treatment and care for patients with rare cancers. Working with Tech To The People, I married the xhtml templates with SPIP, adding features such an AJAX-driven call to action that has collected more than 400 signatures so far.
