FPCCI President Irfan: A robust society relies on the health of women.
Irfan Iqbal said, “300 people tested, and of those, 11 women are diagnosed with breast cancer. The FPCCI supplied two vans outfitted with modern equipment to Cancer Care for the purpose of promoting healthy lives for women.
In collaboration with the Samina Alvi Task Force, the Women Entrepreneurs Committee of the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry and the Karachi Women Chamber of Commerce and Industry Malir (KWCCI Malir) organized a seminar on “Breast Cancer Awareness” with the goal of educating women about this disease.
According to Nazli Abid Nisar, founder, and president of the Karachi Women Chamber of Commerce & Industry Malir and convener of the FPCCI Women Entrepreneurs Committee, we have been holding seminars with the help of the Samina Alvi Task Force for the past three years in an effort to protect women from this disease.
According to Nazli Abid, we want to use the FPCCI platform to lobby the government to send medical teams to cities and rural areas in order to prevent breast cancer so that women are aware of their health and have access to facilities for treatment.
