Carolyn Taylor and her colleagues and really everybody who has obviously shepherded this meeting since 2016 and through the pandemic and bringing it back together. It’s obvious that this is a prime opportunity to share ideas, to share what’s working, to be vocal about challenges across the region and say, ‘How can we learn from our neighbours and partners?’ Especially with challenges that may be particular to this region and these country contexts.

I have to say, when we work in cervical cancer, very often we’re working in Sub-Saharan Africa or Latin America, places that probably get more global funding per capita than anything that we see here in Asia. So this is such an interesting amalgamation of economies and skills and so forth that it presents a really unique opportunity to come together and share and exchange ideas and strategies.
