Understanding the Challenge
Cervical cancer claims over 300,000 women yearly
One woman will die every two minutes from cervical cancer
90% of deaths occurred in low- and middle-income countries
Almost all cases of cervical cancer can be prevented through vaccination, screening and treatment
Fostering Hope For Cervical Cancer
In Australia, groundbreaking efforts, including the development of an Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, are poised to make the country the first to eliminate cervical cancer by 2035.
Renowned documentary filmmaker Sue Collins embarks on an international exploration, evaluating if Australia's successful cervical cancer prevention strategies can be applied globally. From Australia to Malaysia, Zambia to the USA, Colombia to Switzerland, Sue introduces us to resilient women who have battled cervical cancer. Their stories, filled with wisdom and determination, inspire hope for a cervical cancer-free world.
Why It Matters
An estimated 62 million women can be saved through the elimination of cervical cancer globally. Eliminating this disease will be one of the greatest public health achievements of our time. In a manner reminiscent of the successful eradication of polio, this milestone carries far-reaching implications for global health.
