Anal cancer may not be widely talked about, but awareness can save lives. During this Awareness Month, we encourage everyone to learn the signs, understand the risks, and seek medical advice when something doesn’t feel right. Early detection and timely treatment greatly improve outcomes. Paying attention to changes in your body and going for regular health check-ups can make a difference. Let’s break the silence around anal cancer and support open conversations about prevention, screening, and early care. Together, we can reduce stigma and promote healthier communities. #AnalCancerAwareness #CancerPrevention #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #NCIKenya

The result: families lose mothers and communities lose stability. This International Women’s Day, the #AfricaBreastCancerCouncil calls for action on a preventable injustice—late diagnosis and delayed treatment. #IWD2026

Women are the backbone of Africa’s families and communities. Yet breast cancer is rising, with an estimated 400,000 cases expected by 2045. Too many women are diagnosed too late—not because breast cancer is untreatable, but because access to timely care is unequal.

Today is *International HPV Awareness Day* , a reminder that awareness and prevention can save lives. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is very common. Most people will get HPV at some point in their lives, often without any signs or symptoms. While many infections clear on their own, some high-risk types of HPV can lead to cancers, including cervical cancer. The good news is that HPV-related cancers are largely preventable. Vaccination helps protect against HPV infection. Regular screening helps detect early cell changes before they become cancer. HPV affects both women and men and spreads through close skin-to-skin contact. Knowing your status, getting vaccinated, and going for screening are simple steps that make a powerful difference. Protect yourself. Protect your loved ones. Choose prevention today. #HPVAwarenessDay #NCIKenya #HPVVaccine #CancerPrevention #CervicalCancerPrevention #HealthyKenya
