Dear Members of the SIOP Women Leaders Network,

We are delighted to present the full third edition of the SIOP Almanac of Women Leaders, featuring profiles of exceptional women leaders in paediatric oncology: https://tinyurl.com/3ewdbprk

Each profile offers insight into the journey, achievements, and impact of these remarkable individuals. Themes of dedication, balance, self-care, and the importance of supportive networks emerge throughout. These accounts celebrate not only professional accomplishments but also the personal resilience and collaboration that drive progress in research and care. Their work continues to shape the future of childhood cancer treatment and support.

We hope this Almanac inspires and motivates both current and future female leaders. May it spark greater inclusion, equity, and diversity in our field. To all emerging women professionals in paediatric oncology—pursue your passion, find your mentors, and stay true to your purpose.
