CONCLUSION
Having BHGI supportive care guidelines in place, UN recommendations at high level meeting 2011, WHO guidelines and commitments from NCI Centre for Global health to address breast and cervical cancers, Advocates from LMCs have enough evidence to influence policy on resource allocation for prevention, treatment and end of life care.
