We know that women need and seek new information about preventing and detecting cervical cancer. We plan to host a public education programme to provide information and advice to women about cervical cancer.
This part of the project will begin as soon the attitudinal survey is completed. This survey will give us information on what women know and understand about cervical cancer and where/how they would like to receive more information. We can use this information to craft our information messages to reach women more effectively.
Our partners, at this point in this project, will be the Irish Cervical Screening programme, The Women's Health Council, The Irish Cancer Society and The National Cancer Registry.
Some of the information we want to explore with women include
Part of the project will be to share information using a public lecture series. We also plan to provide information using this web site and through information booklets. We will host media events to focus public awareness on cervical cancer and pre-cancer. The project will begin in 2007.
