Cancer is a global phenomenon, but too often it is a silent killer in developing countries. Together with PRI's The World, this week you can explore #globalcancer. Be sure to check out:

-- Pulitzer Center grantee Joanne Silberner's reporting from Haiti, Uganda and India (http://bit.ly/yFFCN0)
-- Pulitzer Center grantee Sean Gallagher's video (produced with Sonia Narang) on smoking in China (http://bit.ly/globalcancer1)- “If you get cancer, people say you’re going to die because there’s no treatment for it,” she explains. “They say even if you see a doctor, you won’t find a solution. That’s the talk.”
-- Excerpt from "Pink Ribbons in Haiti".

- Despite a recent growth in awareness of the dangers of overwork, Japanese workers increasingly work longer hours because of the fear of losing jobs and a shortage of manpower. Excessive overwork causes mental health illnesses such as depres...sion, and in some cases it can lead to suicides. Japan has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. More than 30,000 people have committed suicide every year since 1997. Of those, 10,000 are work-related, according to a government survey. http://bit.ly/Yulu8YSee More
- In Japan, a hostess is a young woman who entertains men at bars or clubs. Customers pay large sums of money to these women for pleasure of their company, i.e. for flirting but not sex. Once frowned upon, the hostess job has been gaining pop...ularity among young women. Despite the Equal Opportunity Law of 1986, Japanese women’s employment opportunities are often limited to low-paying, dead-end jobs or temp positions. Only 65% of college-educated women are employed and women’s salaries are a third less than men’s. Though women can only work as hostesses when they are young, many young women see this profession as one of the few jobs that provide financial independence. Photojournalist Shiho Fukada is collecting stories about disposable workers. Comment below or on her story http://bit.ly/disposedJPN. Image by Shiho Fukada. Japan, 2012.See More
