  • Access to genuine and latest information to promote healthcare awareness in multiple languages through schools, community centres, media and local healthcare providers.
  • Engaging programs that can include talks, debates, seminars, workshops and health fairs from support groups. These programs can also include a one-to-one interaction between people and healthcare providers.
  • It’s not just about an individual or a group of individuals.
