This initiative came to support women's health, as they are the most important segments of society and most in need of awareness and health care.
The initiative aims at early detection of breast tumors and also includes awareness of reproductive health, detection of noncommunicable diseases (diabetes - blood pressure, etc.), in addition to risk factors that cause noncommunicable diseases, and raising awareness of the self-examination method.
