On 17 November 2023, we will mark 3 years of the global movement to eliminate cervical cancer.
In 2020, 194 countries resolved to eliminate a cancer for the first time and WHO launched the Global strategy to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health problem.
This historic response to the WHO Director-General’s call to action in 2018 catalysed a social movement and sparked an annual tradition, bringing communities across the world together for a Day of Action for Cervical Cancer Elimination.
