CANCER AWARENESS WEBINAR

The Cancer Awareness Webinar was part of the TERKKU Project planned and implemented by HEED Finland in collaboration with the Finnish Cancer Registry.  The webinar aimed to raise awareness of the prevalence and prevention of cancer, including the cancer screening program in Finland.  Another important objective of the seminar was to address cultural and religious factors that can impact immigrants´ understanding of cancer.   Almost 100 participants attended the webinar organised via Zoom, which lasted 45 minutes longer than the planned 2 hours.  Participants were very active and asked so many questions. The feedback from participants was excellent.
