DWW is a women health advocacy campaign held by Dada wellness Festival during breast cancer awareness month to sensitize, inform and provide answers around myths and misconceptions in breast cancer, maternal health care and mental health.
Breast cancer is the most Prevalent and notorious cancer affecting a huge portion of women in the city, due to the data provided the incidence is expected to rise by 85% in the Sub-Saharan Africa by 2030. This trend is alarming and underscores the need to develop evidence based interventions. The evidence generation entails the collection of adequate information on burden, pattern, and prevalence of cancer relative to capacity to promote effective decision making.
DHF seeks to provide a platform where sustained information is availed to the local communities through Localized Dada Health Clubs where the local support groups can be utilized as interventions.
This Festival becomes a culmination of ongoing activities and engagements happening at grass root levels in Dada Health Clubs. We envision a hub of information from patients, survivors healthcare providers and healthcare experts which will sensitize the general public on cancer and maternal health challenges.
