Movement Health Launches Women-Centered Initiative to Combat Cervical Cancer in South Africa
Problem
How can we leverage digital solutions to overcome rural challenges, enhance awareness, and enable regular cervical cancer screenings in communities?
Digital Solution
The solution comprises two main parts, which are: screening and awareness-raising. Along with a mobile-friendly Progressive Web App (PWA) with customized education, offline-accessible videos, maps of nearby screening locations, health worker contact information, voice input capabilities, and incentives to promote greater usage, it makes use of a variety of communication channels, including radio and television.
Impact
Better patient outcomes due to early detection.
Aims for a 20% treatment cost reduction through early screening as well as increased VSA.
Impact Areas
Identified profiles of high-risk populations
Early detection and timely intervention
Expanded coverage
