CHALLENGE
Cervical cancer is one the leading causes of cancer-related mortality and morbidity among women in Kenya, particularly for those who cannot afford quality care. Nearly all cervical cancers are caused by high-risk strains of the human papilloma virus (HPV) – a common sexually transmitted infection – meaning that cervical cancer can be prevented through early detection and management of HPV in girls and women.
