For
the sixth consecutive year, many citizens and civil society activists
have marched on the main boulevard "Dëshmorët e Kombit”
against breast cancer, a disease that every year is affecting hundred
of females. The Breast Cancer Awareness month across the World, helps
to increase the attention and the early prevention of this disease
since it is the most common spread cancer among women worldwide.
Differently
from the other years in this march were present not only people from
the government, such as the Minister of Health, American Ambassador
and actors from the Civil Society but even 30 Roma women from Fushë
Kruja community. These Roma women joined the initiative and marched
against breast cancer by wearing pink T-shirts, hats and ribbons.
While marching the Roma women and girls were expressing themselves
determined to be part of this event and to give their help for this
cause. Myzena Muhaxhiri, one of the women who is part of REFLECT
project said: “During this month I have heard a lot about breast
cancer disease and I wanted to join this march to sensitize all the
people about the risk that it has”.
