In commemoration of World Cancer Day, Kilimanjaro Clinical Research Institute - KCRI through the NORA and REACT-CAN projects, delivered vital cancer awareness and health education sessions to patients attending the Outpatient Department (OPD) at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre - KCMC

The sessions provided education on different types of cancer and included practical demonstrations on how to perform breast self-examinations, empowering individuals with skills for early detection. Patients were also encouraged to prioritize regular medical check-ups as an essential part of preventive healthcare.

Importantly, the community was reminded of the need to stay informed about cancer warning signs and symptoms, the value of routine cancer screening, and the critical importance of seeking medical care promptly when unusual health changes are noticed. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes, and patients were reassured that not every lump or symptom indicates cancer, but timely medical evaluation is essential.

KCRI remains committed to strengthening community awareness, promoting early diagnosis, and improving cancer prevention and care.
