Cervical cancer is the most prevalent HPV-related cancer among females, ranking third among women. Remarkably, over 90% of cancers caused by HPV can be prevented through vaccination.

Join us on Tuesday, 30 January for a Spotlight Session when the National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) along with the HEART Alliance, will provide much-needed information for us to help our colleagues, friends, mothers, sisters, and daughters.

The 'Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-related Cancers Elimination Alliance Rallying Together' (HEART) is a collaborative initiative by the National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) that aims to promote the protection against HPV-related cancers in society by implementing appropriate measures and initiatives to improve awareness, screening rates, and vaccination. They are dedicated to amplifying awareness about HPV-related cancers and working toward Malaysia's ambitious goal of 90-70-90 targets by 2030 in line with the World Health Organization (WHO): 90% of girls fully vaccinated with HPV vaccine by 15 years of age, 70% of women screened using a high-performance test and 90% of women identified with cervical disease will be treated.

• Vaccination Advocacy: Uncover how participating in the HEART Alliance paves the way for championing HPV vaccination, contributing significantly to the eradication of cervical cancer in Malaysia.
