We focus our efforts on:
- Evidence-based, highly impactful interventions for preventing cancer
- Not well used in countries where the cancer burden is highest, in part because they are not framed as life-saving cancer prevention initiatives
- Highly effective interventions for adolescents, an age group often overlooked yet critical to addressing risk factors that can prevent cancer in adulthood.
To increase the adoption and scale-up of HPV vaccination, ACS leverages its strengths to:
- Share its resources and expertise, and build partner capacity in research, education, communications, and advocacy
- Provide guidance to local cancer organizations to develop and sustain relevant partnerships to:
- Create public awareness and demand for HPV vaccination as a key cancer prevention strategy
- Mobilize partners to work with their national governments to prioritize HPV vaccination as cancer prevention
