Cancer Australia's campaigns and events raise awareness of important cancer initiatives.
World Cancer Day
February
The theme of World Cancer Day 2022-2024 is Close the Care Gap.
Whoever you are, you have the power to reduce the impact of cancer for yourself, the people you love and the world.
Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month
February
Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month is held in February each year to raise awareness of ovarian cancer and to highlight issues facing those diagnosed and their partners and families.
Each year in Australia about 1,550 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. More than two-thirds of women are diagnosed at an advanced stage, where the cancer has spread and is difficult to treat successfully.
