The 14th Dr. Ida S. Scudder Humanitarian Oration is awarded to Dr. Ravi Kannan, Director, Cachar Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (CCHRC), Silchar, Assam.
Dr. Kannan is the recipient of both the Ramon Magsaysay Award, considered Asia's equivalent of the Nobel Prize, as well as the Padma Shri, India's 4th highest civilian award.
Dr. Ravi is widely recognised for transforming cancer care in one of the most underserved parts of India. A surgical oncologist by training, he left a successful career in Chennai to build a people-centred model of treatment that combines clinical excellence with compassion, affordability, and community outreach. Under his leadership, the hospital has grown into a beacon of hope for thousands of patients and families, offering not only medical treatment but also food, shelter, livelihood support, and home-based care. Honoured with the Magsaysay Award, Dr. Kannan’s story demonstrates that advances in cancer care are most powerful when grounded in compassion and equity.
