Hope in Action: Bridging Culture, Clinical Trials and Community Healing

Join us at the Embassy of Côte d'Ivoire for an inspiring event focused on bridging the gap between culture, clinical trials, and community healing. This gathering is designed to create a safe, vibrant, and empowering space where Africans and the diaspora can come together to learn, share, and celebrate resilience. The workshop will bridge culture and science by providing clear information on cancer and clinical trials, while honoring the cultural richness of our communities. Through survivor testimonies, interactive dialogue, authentic African cuisine, and a powerful fashion show led by survivors, the event will highlight the importance of breaking the silence, confronting stigma, and healing together as a community.
