International Day against Breast Cancer is being observed today to raise awareness about this deadly disease and promote women´s access to timely diagnosis and treatment.

The theme for World Breast Cancer Day in 2024 is “No one should face breast cancer alone.”

This theme emphasises the critical role of patient-centered care, which encompasses medical, emotional, psychological, and social support through patient navigation systems.

It also seeks to address gender and socio-economic inequalities in access to breast cancer care.
