Polikalipo Kagina: Surrounded by transparent images of radiotherapy machines and smiling faces of cancer survivors

Polikalipo Kagina, Radiotherapist at Ocean Road Cancer Institute, shared a post on LinkedIn:

WORLD RADIOTHERAPY AWARENESS DAY 7 September 2025.

“One Voice for Radiotherapy”

This powerful image speaks for many.

Five individuals, seated on the dry soil of a humble African setting, stare into the sky. Their eyes are full of frustration yet shine with hope.

In the sky, they see it: World Radiotherapy Awareness Day 2025, surrounded by transparent images of radiotherapy machines and smiling faces of cancer survivors.

This vision is more than symbolic — it is a call.

A cry.

A movement.

Together, we stand united for,

  • One voice for patients to access modern radiotherapy technology.
  • One voice for curing cancer and easing suffering with radiotherapy.
  • One voice for raising awareness of radiotherapy as a safe, effective, and advancing treatment.
  • One workforce voice for well-educated and skilled radiotherapy teams.
  • One voice for lasting, cost-effective global cancer control through radiotherapy.

Let this day be more than just another awareness campaign. Let it be the beginning of equity, education, access and most importantly, hope.”
