“Lancet Oncology recently covered our announcement about a new US$50 million Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and women’s cancers, which will begin by supporting the elimination of cervical cancer in Indonesia.

The initiative was launched by the Women’s Health and Economic Empowerment Network (WHEN) and the Elimination Partnership in the Indo-Pacific for Cervical Cancer (EPICC) on Sept 24, 2025, in New York, NY, USA, at the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.”
