ASPIRE GENERATIONS: Gaining an understanding among mothers and children of the social and economic impacts of a cervical cancer diagnosis in Uganda

Cervical cancer is a leading cause of death in low- and middle-income countries. A cervical cancer diagnosis has a physical and emotional impact however the social and economic consequences are largely unknown. The overall study goal is to understand the social and economic impact of cervical cancer on women and children in Uganda. The results from this study will help identify and develop support needed for women and children affected by cervical cancer in low- and middle-income countries. This information can be used to improve cervical cancer screening programs and serve as an example for investing in resources to support global cervical cancer screening.
