Our Work
Distributing Surveys
We started out our project by designing surveys which would be helpful in determining the level of knowledge that people held on the different cancer treatments. This was distributed online and physically.

Petition Signing
We then created a physical petition where people drew ribbons to show their support for the spread of awareness on the topic of alternative cancer treatments. An online petition was created as well which amassed over 500 signings.

Conducting Interviews
To further increase our knowledge on the topic, we interviewed two doctors who would monumentally help in increasing our awareness on the topic and provide us with new information. We held an online interview with Dr. who is an orthopedic surgeon and has worked in leading cancer institutions such as Shaukat Khanum. We also physically interviewed Dr. Muhammad Farrukh, who works at Shifa International in the field of oncology. You can learn more on the interviews in the resources section.

Delivering Presentations
To make sure we had an impact in the students of our school, we also created an interactive presentation to maximize the amount of information that could be learnt by students in a short time period. We delivered this presentation and held a Q&A session at the end.


Visiting the HSA
The HSA is the Health Services Academy of Islamabad. It is the first degree awarding institute in public health sciences in Pakistan. We met with the Dean of the institute (at the time) and discussed how we could propagate the message of our project further. We also posted and distributed leaflets all over the institute to educate aspiring doctors and educators to learn more on the topic.
