several past Breast Cancer Awareness campaigns from UICC members. They aimed to raise awareness around breast cancer through multiple channels and regions:</strong></p> <ul> <li>The Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA), in collaboration with the Food Lover’s Market and Grid Worldwide carried out a national campaign to raise awareness of the importance of breast self-examinations (BSE) to detect breast cancer early, and have designed a campaign for female shoppers to check out their ‘<a href="https://cansa.org.za/check-them-out/">Melons</a>’. Alongside informational materials, CANSA shares the video “how to do a BSE” during these campaigns.</li> <li>Breast Cancer International (BCI) Ghana did its ‘<a href="https://www.facebook.com/BreastCareInternationalGhana/videos/we-are-grateful-lets-continue-to-fight-against-breast-cancer-in-ghana-and-beyond/1560069341420233/">Walk for the cure 2023</a>’ in the capital city of Ghana - Accra. There were 1000s that walked to raise awareness and celebrate breast cancer survivors in pink. The group also carried out an inspiring initiative to photograph survivors of breast cancer to raise awareness.</li> <li>Europa Donna launched ‘<a href="https://www.thecancercurrency.com/">the Cancer Currency</a>’ campaign to highlight the value of women with MBC by creating “currency” (working with the artist who designed the US $50 and $100 bills) with real women experiencing MBC, they launched an inspiring video to bring this initiative to life. </li> <li>In Ivory Coast, Hope Life organised the forth edition of the '<a href="https://www.facebook.com/hopelifeci/videos/les-lampions-se-sont-%C3%A9teints-sur-le-slam-rose-23-nous-avons-%C3%A9t%C3%A9-gratifi%C3%A9s-de-tr%C3%A8/1040267093891995">Slam Rose</a>', an urban poetry contest to grow awareness about breast cancer in the younger population, as well as many other activities such as free breast cancer screening and physical activity events. </li> <li>In Egypt, the <a href="https://baheya.org/en/about">Baheya Foundation</a> held the 6th Baheya Breast Cancer Conference as well as a Run for Breast Cancer Awareness organized with Adidas Runners. The foundation previously lit the pyramids in pink and launched the “30 days in Pink” campaign.</li> <li>In Mexico, Fundación CIMA launched a <a href="https://www.cimafundacion.org/sobre-el-cancer-de-mama/huellas/">virtual sportive event</a> in which participants could walk, run, swim, bike and more, to support breast cancer patients.</li> <li>In Lebanon, <a href="https://farahfeghaly.com/dothebreadexam">the Bread Exam</a> is a bread recipe that implicitly teaches women how to self-check for breast cancer.</li> </ul> <p>To learn how to design messaging and campaigns that appeal to the public based on design-thinking principles and hear from past campaigns of UICC members, you can watch the Virtual Dialogue on “<a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="6bdb06ca-642f-40ac-aa53-352e52002075" href="/events/special-focus-dialogue-rethinking-pink-october-how-increase-engagement-public-virtually" title="Special Focus Dialogue: Rethinking Pink October – how to increase engagement with the public virtually">Rethinking Pink October – how to increase engagement with the public virtually</a>”.</p> <p>Please share your own BCAM campaign through the <a href="https://www.iccp-portal.org/node/add/multimedia-resource">ICCP portal</a> and view other campaigns from UICC members on the <a href="https://www.iccp-portal.org/resources-search?f%5B0%5D=type%3Amultimedia_resource">ICCP resource library</a>.</p> <h2><span class="text-orange">Breast Cancer Awareness Month contest on UICC Connect</span></h2> <p><span><span><span>UICC is hosting a friendly competition for organisations to post BCAM activities on UICC Connect.
