The Know Yourself for Early Diagnosis – A Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign (Kendini Tanı Erken Tanı Meme Kanseri Farkındalık Hareketi) aims to raise awareness about breast cancer among women, particularly those with limited access to healthcare services in Türkiye. The project involves educational sessions on early detection, self-examination techniques, and access to screening and diagnostic services, followed by coordination for breast cancer screenings at KETEM (Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening, and Training Centers). Moreover, the project focuses on women over 40 years old in disadvantaged regions.

Note: Needs Map (İhtiyaç Haritası) is leading the project in collaboration with Kanser Savaşçıları Derneği.
