This WHO Guidance Note advocates for a comprehensive
approach to cervical cancer prevention and control and is aimed at senior
policy makers and programme managers. It describes the need to deliver
effective interventions across the female life course from childhood through to
adulthood. These include community education, social mobilization, HPV
vaccination, screening, treatment and palliative care. It outlines the complementary
strategies for comprehensive cervical cancer prevention and control, and
highlights collaboration across national health programmes (particularly
immunization, reproductive health, cancer control and adolescent health),
organizations and partners.
