Efforts to increase uptake of cervical cancer screening in the absence of a national programme in Ghana: a qualitative study of stakeholders’ experience
In the absence of a national cervical cancer screening programme, the study found out that it is the contributions of committed stakeholders that may be ensuring the continued existence of CCS services in Ghana. The goodwill that is shown by society during the CCAM in January should be harnessed to broaden the scope and reach of cervical screening activities beyond January.
