Partners
Brain Tumour Alliance Australia (BTAA) works collaboratively with a diverse network of partners across healthcare, research, advocacy, community, and industry. These valued partnerships strengthen our collective impact, support people affected by brain tumours, and help drive meaningful improvements in awareness, care, research, and outcomes. We are grateful for the shared commitment, expertise, and support of our partners, whose collaboration is essential to advancing our mission.
The Australian Brain Tumour Collaborative
BTAA initiated and funded the establishment of the ABTC which was formally launched in December 2022. BTAA works closely with the members of the ABTC to achieve our advocacy priorities.
The Collaborative’s purpose is to:
- Unite Australia’s brain tumour sector under one collaborative framework
- Align and integrate fragmented efforts across research, clinical care, and consumer support
- Amplify the lived experience voice to inform research, care and policy
- Drive national-scale action to improve outcomes and equity
BTAA is joined by key Australian brain cancer organisations in the Australian Brain Tumour Collaborative, Cure Brain Cancer Foundation, Peace of Mind Foundation, Robert Connor Dawes Foundation, Mark Hughes Foundation, Psycho Cooperative Research Group (PoCoG), Cooperative Trials Group for Neuro Oncology (COGNO), The Brain Cancer Centre and The Brain Cancer Group (TBCG).
International Brain Tumour Alliance
BTAA collaborates closely with the International Brain Tumour Alliance (IBTA), supporting global initiatives such as International Brain Tumour Awareness Week and the Walk Around the World for Brain Tumours.
IBTA was founded in 2005, with one of BTAA’s founding members, Denis Strangman as its inaugural Chair. IBTA is now a respected global voice, connecting people in more than 100 countries and advocating internationally for rights, equity, and improved care.
