The funds will allow Kirby Institute at UNSW Sydney to screen thousands of women in seven Pacific countries for cervical cancer. </strong></span></p> <p>UNSW Sydney has received the largest single philanthropic donation in its history to work with regional partners to tackle one of the deadliest preventable cancers in the Pacific. </p> <p>The $25.9 million donation from the Swire Group will enable the Kirby Institute at UNSW Sydney to work with partners in Australia and our region to support vital cervical screening and treatment services for over 130,000 women in seven countries: Fiji, Kiribati, Republic of Marshall Islands, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga and Vanuatu. </p> <p>Rates of cervical cancer in the Pacific are among the highest in the world, according to the World Health Organization, with Pacific women up to 14 times more likely to die from cervical cancer than women in Australia. </p> <p>“Cervical cancer is the number one cause of cancer-related death among women in the Pacific and is devastating to women, families, and entire communities across our region. This generous investment will enable countries like Samoa to partner with the Kirby Institute to advance our vision of a world free of cervical cancer,” said Fiamē Naomi Mataʻafa, Prime Minister of Samoa.</p> <p>Almost all cases of cervical cancer are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, a common virus spread through sexual contact. Most women with HPV infection or early cervical disease do not experience symptoms so early detection through screening is crucial.   </p> <p>“This landmark investment will enable us to work with countries across the Pacific over the next five years to advance our collective vision of a world free of cervical cancer and ultimately save thousands of lives across our region,” says Professor Andrew Vallely, who is co-leading the work at the Kirby Institute at UNSW Sydney with Project Manager Vanessa Price. </p> </div> </span> </div> <div class="image uds-component section"><span data-component_type="image" data-component_id="image-1932939049" data-component_title="Record $25.9 million donation to advance cervical cancer elimination in the Pacific"> <div> <div> <div class="tpl-image full-width article-image"> <div data-cmp-is="image" data-cmp-src="/content/unsw-sites/au/en/newsroom/news/2024/11/Record-25-million-donation-to-advance-cervical-cancer-elimination-in-the-Pacific/_jcr_content/root/responsivegrid-layout-fixed-width/responsivegrid-full-top/column_layout_1/par_2_1_75/column_layout/par_1/column_layout/par_1/image.coreimg.82{.width}.jpeg/1730345788776/andrew-vallely-fiji.jpeg" data-cmp-widths="335,700,1170,1280,1920" data-asset="/content/dam/images/unsw-wide/general/news/2024/2024-10-swire-cervical-cancer/andrew-vallely-fiji.jpeg" data-title="Professor Andrew Vallely sits with women waiting for their test results in Fiji.

Previous approaches involved invasive pelvic examinations and results could take weeks.

This funding will enable Tongan and Pacific women to live a life free from the burden of cervical cancer,” she said.</p> <p>Dr Leanne Panisi, Head, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, in the Solomon Islands says this funding presents an amazing opportunity for the Solomon Islands. “We see the burden at my end with patients, I see the suffering.
