MINUTES OF THE MEETING: AGENDA ITEM 4.1 – CANCER AWARENESS
CAMPAIGN CELEBRATIONS
The meeting commenced with Dr. Nku introducing the discussion of agenda item
4.1, which was focused on the upcoming Cancer Awareness Campaign
Celebrations scheduled for 10 November 2024. Dr. Nku emphasized the
importance of this event as it brings together staff, students, and the wider Conwell
College community to raise awareness about cancer prevention, management, and
support. He noted that the campaign would focus on spreading information about
cancer, including preventive measures and advice for those living with the disease.
Dr. Tlou provided an overview of the global significance of World Cancer Day 2024,
with the theme “Increasing Impact through Transparency, Accountability, and
Partnerships.” He highlighted that cancer remains a critical issue affecting people
between the ages of 25 and 49, a demographic that makes up a significant portion
of the workforce. Dr. Tlou stressed the importance of the college’s efforts in
educating and supporting this age group to address the long-term impact of cancer
on individuals and communities.
Following this, several ideas and proposals for the event were discussed. Dr. Mago
suggested inviting a guest speaker from the Department of Health, who could
provide insight into how businesses and individuals can contribute to reducing
cancer rates. This was considered a valuable addition to the event, as it would offer
both educational content and a call to action for the community.
Mr. Sello, representing the Student Representative Council (SRC), gave an update
on their preparations. The SRC had already started designing posters and flyers to
promote the event across all campuses. Students and staff would be required to
wear T-shirts representing the college colors, and entry tickets priced at R20 would
be sold as part of the fundraising effort. Additionally, pink ribbons would be
distributed to symbolize cancer awareness, and transportation logistics were being
arranged to ensure all campuses could attend the event.
Dr. Tau added that the college management had reserved funds to support the
campaign. These funds would cover the guest speaker’s fees, provide stalls for
