Elisabeth Staudinger: Kenya will be the pioneering country to officially launch the transformative Cervical and Breast Cancer Coalition of the WEF Global Alliance for Women’s Health
Elisabeth Staudinger, Managing Board Member at Siemens Healthineers , made the following post on LinkedIn:
“I am thrilled that Kenya, under the leadership of Cabinet Secretary for Health, Susan Wafula, will be the pioneering country to officially launch the transformative Cervical and Breast Cancer Coalition of the WEF Global Alliance for Women’s Health.
Breast and cervix together are the two leading causes of cancer-related deaths in Kenya. They also account for 45% of women’s cancers in Low-income countries, and nearly 80% of deaths from these two cancers happen in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs).
These are not just percentages – these are mothers, daughters, sisters, wives and friends whose lives are cut short by diseases that we have the tools to prevent, detect and treat.
This Coalition, championed by Siemens Healthineers, is a platform designed to facilitate and encourage collaborations and to bring about meaningful solutions between key stakeholders who are uniquely positioned to accelerate action.
By working together in a multi-stakeholder approach, we can help women, and therefore everybody on this planet, rise!”
