It's Cervical Cancer Elimination Day of Action. Eliminating this threat to women's lives is a crucial step towards #HealthForAll. Empowering frontline health workers with the training, tools, and support they need is vital to achieving the Global Strategy’s 2030 targets. 👇🏿

❓Why should young girls get the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine to prevent #CervicalCancer? ➡️At this age, the immune response is strongest, so the vaccine is more effective. In some countries, women, boys, and men are also vaccinated to accelerate the reduction of cancers.

The HPV vaccine can prevent most cases of cervical cancer if the vaccine is given before girls are exposed to the virus #EndHPV #GetVaccinated #VaccinesWork #VaccinesAreSafe National Department of Health

Of the 350,000 women who died of cervical cancer in 2022, more than 90% of them were in low- and middle-income countries. This #IWD2025 we’re calling for donors to step up and fight #cervicalcancer by supporting our work to vaccinate 120 million girls against #HPV from 2026-2030,
