OVARIAN CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month is held every February in New Zealand and provides an opportunity to educate, advocate and fundraise for ovarian cancer.

In February 2026 we launched our report State of Ovarian Cancer Report Aotearoa New Zealand | He kōrero mo te ahuatanga o te mate pukupuku kākano-ā-kopu ki at Parliament.

This impactful report includes insights from researchers, GP’s, the NZ public and of course, from women facing ovarian cancer and their whānau.

Speakers on the day were passionate and clear about what they want to see to improve outcomes for all wāhine and families who live with this disease.

While this was an important milestone, what comes next it what really matters. Raising awareness so everyone knows how important ovarian cancer is, and advocating for the changes we’re asking for! You can help us by reading the report and sharing it far and wide.
