Initiative Colombia
Revo Pro are a group of professional Ultimate Frisbee women, ambassadors of E.R.I.C. in Colombia, who are committed to raising awareness about breast cancer prevention and healthy habits that contribute to a better lifestyle and helping the early recognition of the disease in the communities of Colombia, and thus, influence positive changes in the lifestyle and breast health among women.
Our aim is to reach out to diverse communities from our country in different areas such as universities, institutes, schools, rural communities, elderly populations, international migrant communities in our country , young and adult mothers and sports groups.
Cancer Burden in Colombia
Cancer is one of the main causes of death worldwide, in Colombia breast cancer is a big concern as it continues to be the type of cancer with the highest incidence in the country with 13.7% of prevalence with 15.5069 new cases.
When breast cancer is detected early, an adequate diagnosis is established, and treatment is available to act immediately and effectively, increasing the chances of cure. Even better, physical activity, healthy eating, avoiding overweight, and reducing alcohol consumption can reduce the risk of breast cancer.
Despite the efforts made in the country the make the treatments more accessible, there is still a lot of effort to be done to generate awareness about prevention and early detection.
