In co-operation with the Qatar Cancer Society, the Ministry of Justice on Wednesday organised a Cancer Awareness Day to raise awareness and educate about cancer, with the aim of shedding light on the disease and the importance of prevention, early detection, and treatment methods.
The day is organised on the occasion of October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is marked by Qatar each year, within the framework of the ministry's social responsibility, and in line with national policies that support society and promote health culture.
The ministry also aims to support the national cancer early detection programme, which contributes to raising awareness and early detection of the disease in Qatar, in accordance with the national cancer prevention strategy, which represents a shift towards preventive and community healthcare.
During the awareness day at the Ministry of Justice, the medical team from the Qatar Cancer Society supervised the provision of detailed explanations and information to employees about cancer prevention methods and the importance of early detection and treatment.
The medical team also provided guidance on steps that everyone can take to reduce the risk of cancer and adopt healthy habits that promote the health and safety of society.
