Turning health awareness into community action, Dr. Akbar Niazi Teaching Hospital (ANTH), in collaboration with Islamabad Medical & Dental College (IMDC) and the Islamabad GAK Lions Club, successfully observed a series of educational sessions and free medical screening camps about breast cancer.
The initiative commenced with a seminar hosted at IMDC, drawing participation from students representing various medical institutions across Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Following the seminar, these activities were extended to key institutional locations, including Punjab College (17 Meel), the State Bank of Pakistan, and Kohinoor Mills Limited.
The aim of the campaign was to mobilize the general public, with a special focus on educating female students and staff members. During these medical awareness sessions, Dr. Maham Tariq provided detailed insights into the severity of breast cancer. She emphasized the importance of early diagnosis and regular self-examinations, while encouraging attendees to adopt a balanced, healthy lifestyle to reduce medical risks.
To ensure the execution and maximum reach of these initiatives, Imran Ali Ghouri, Head of Communications, successfully managed all public engagement and coordination with the administrations of the host organizations. Through these collective efforts, the collaborating institutions have reaffirmed their commitment to global healthcare standards.
By successfully bridging the gap between healthcare experts and the public, this drive has empowered thousands of women with knowledge about breast cancer, and laying the groundwork for a healthier society.
