The overall goal of the 2024-2028 guideline is to provide a strategic guidance aimed at reducing breast cancer mortality in Ethiopia in alignment with the GBCI targets.
The three key aims are to:
- Provide a framework for health facilities on the provision of high quality and effective breast cancer care services at the national level.
- Provide guidance to policymakers, managers, departmental heads, and other stakeholders on how to implement a breast cancer control program focused on shifting to early diagnosis of the disease over time.
- Incrementally improve breast cancer management to increase survival and quality of life of patients with breast cancer.
