Purple Awareness Stand Bohinjska Bistrica

11. - 12. 9. 2026
Slovenia

Our awareness stand in Bohinjska Bistrica will offer new materials about gynaecological cancers, prevention, HPV vaccination and possible signs and symptoms. Information will also be available for women already facing the disease. The activity is part of our Purple September campaign, with this year’s slogan “Take Care of Your Essential Parts” (“Poskrbi za svoje nepogrešljive kose”). It is one of 22 activities across Slovenia bringing reliable information closer to women and helping break stigma.
