It [the documentary] will also improve and encourage young girls and women to have access to cervical services, including cervical cancer screening, timely treatment, and patient support among rural girls and women.

Our ability to bring the documentary to our country has raised the profile of Humanity at Heart as a serious player in the field, and we now actively collaborate with the National Cancer Control Committee.

The events were an immense success. The organisers and participants enjoyed every step of the event’s process and outcome. With the experience and lessons learned, ACO intends to showcase the documentary in other jurisdictions and use it as an advocacy driver for cervical cancer control policy change.

Cervical screening is one of the most effective ways to prevent cervical cancer, or at least to catch it early on. π§‘
Recent changes made to the National Cervical Screening Program by the Australian Government have also made it much more effective for all women in Australia- and is now expected to reduce cervical cancer rates and deaths by at least another 20%.

Sadly, a woman dies somewhere in the world from cervical cancer every two minutes. Even more devastatingly- this cancer is completely preventable.
Conquering cervical cancer is possible, if we work together.

Cervical cancer has been a big focus for us over the past couple of years. And it got us thinking π€ if one cancer can be eliminated, what does that mean for other cancers? So we started exploring other cancers that could be prevented or eliminated, and that led us to skin cancer - another hopeful story.
Then we got busy building our new website to talk about all the Conquering Cancer films. Check it out and join us to imagine a world without cancer.

A positive response from Dr. Ernest Hawk (Head of Cancer Prevention and Control at MD Anderson Cancer Centre) on the USA edition of Conquering Cervical Cancer πΊπΈ
"Conquering Cervical Cancer tells the exciting story of what I consider to be one of if not the, greatest example of translational progress against cancer to date. Over just the last century, science has transformed cervical cancer from one of the most highly prevalent, morbid, and fatal cancers, to a cancer that promises to be eliminated within our lifetimes"
We were thrilled to have Dr Hawk`s feedback after watching the film. Have you watched the trailer of Conquering Cervical Cancer (USA Edition)? If not, check out the link in our bio π

Can you imagine a world without cancer?
You may not know this but Australia has one of the world`s highest skin cancer rates, with approx. 2000 people dying from the disease each year (melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer combined).
Here`s the interesting thing - most skin cancers are preventable through appropriate protection from ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
The fight for cancer prevention and elimination continues! π¬

Eve McDavid is a Cervical Cancer survivor and advocate, and the Conquering Cancer team had the pleasure of filming with her last April. We were so happy that Eve was able to host a screening of Conquering Cervical Cancer (USA Edition), afterwards she told us:
"Thank you for seeing the value in Dr Balogun & my stories and featuring us in your incredible film. Conquering Cancer will be in the history books when we look back on the reasons how and why Elimination happened. Thank you for this important artistic and scientific contribution to the worldβ
Thanks, Eve, we`re so glad you could be part of this project π

DID YOU KNOW that Cancer Council Australia reported nearly 80% of all new cancer diagnoses in Australia are skin cancers each year? Our skin is invaluable; let`s prioritize its care, not overlook it. ππͺ
