This paper shares our experiences and key lessons learnt from the development and implementation of a pioneering breast health training course for healthcare workers in Malawi, with a strong emphasis on early breast cancer diagnosis. In response to the rising burden of breast cancer and limited healthcare infrastructure, the course was designed to bridge the critical gap in early detection and diagnosis among local healthcare providers. The initiative was a collaborative effort involving Malawian health authorities, specialist clinicians, sectoral experts and civil society organisations, enabling us to create a curriculum specifically tailored to the local context.
