Cervical cancer awareness - Moldova

The Reproductive Health Training Center (RHTC) is preparing a project in collaboration with the Ministry of Health of Moldova for a joint series of activities aiming to delivery the HPV vaccine in Moldova for girls aged 9-13.

The implementation of an innovative HPV vaccine has been challenging in Moldova due to the professional incompetence of medical providers, as well as fear and distrust of the vaccination. In collaboration with UICC, RHTC aims to raise awareness on cervical cancer prevention and the importance of the HPV vaccination.

Project Objectives

  • Raise awareness of the HPV vaccination as one of the most important measures for cervical cancer prevention.
  • Raise awareness among medical providers about the importance of cervical cancer screenings and the HPV vaccination.
  • Improve coverage of HPV vaccination for girls aged 9-13.
