This guidance note advocates a comprehensive approach to cervical
cancer prevention and control. It is aimed at senior policy makers and
programme managers. It describes the need to deliver effective
interventions from childhood through to adulthood, including community
education, social mobilization, HPV vaccination, screening, treatment
and palliative care. It also outlines the complementary strategies for
comprehensive cervical cancer prevention and control, and highlights
collaboration across national health programmes (particularly
immunisation, reproductive health, cancer control and adolescent
health), organisations and partners.
