Elimination of cervical cancer as a public health problem is a flagship project of WHO.
In May 2018, the Director-General of the World Health Organization announced a global call to action towards the elimination of cervical cancer, underscoring renewed political will to make elimination a reality, and called for all stakeholders to unite behind this common goal. In January 2019, at its 144th Session, the Executive Board requested the Director-General to develop, in consultation with Member States and other relevant stakeholders, a draft global strategy to accelerate cervical cancer elimination, with clear targets for the period 2020–2030, for consideration by the Seventy-third World Health Assembly, through the Executive Board at its 146th session. The WHO Secretariat is holding a web-based consultation on the draft global strategy. The web-based consultation is open to Member States, organizations of the UN System, academics and non-State actors. Please review the draft global strategy and participate in the online survey (click on the link to access the survey). Submission closes: 10 May 2019 Please contact [email protected] if you have any questions. |
