Background and Context:
Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, claiming over 10 million lives annually, with a growing burden in Sub-Saharan Africa. Among these, women’s cancers, such as breast and cervical cancer, disproportionately affect populations in low-resource settings. Despite medical advancements in Western countries, disparities in access to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment persist, leaving African women with limited options and poorer outcomes. This paper explores a multidimensional approach to bridging this gap, emphasizing the importance of accessible health infrastructure, cultural sensitivity, socio-economic support, and investment in prevention and research. By addressing these systemic challenges, we can enhance equity in cancer care and improve survival rates for women across the continent.
