About

VMAabir Bio-Services Foundation

Aabir Bio-Services Foundation (ABSF) is “not-for-profit” Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) and it is registered under section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013.

Aabir Bio-Services Foundation is committed to bridge the gap between science and society through continuous public engagement programmes and knowledge transfer about common and preventable diseases in women and girls in India since its inception in 2011.

According to “World Health Organization”, the health of women and girls is of particular concern because in many societies they are disadvantaged by discrimination rooted in socio-cultural factors. Our core area of work is  prevention and disease control related to women and girls health, with a focus on cervical cancer. One woman dies of cervical cancer every two minutes around the globe, making it one of the greatest threats to women’s health and lives. Most of these women are not diagnosed early enough, and lack access to life-saving treatment.

The WHO’s Global Strategy guides action, with targets to prevent cervical cancer via HPV vaccination, screening using high-performance tests and treatment of precancerous lesions and invasive cancers.

Our Vision:

A cervical cancer free future for women and girls in India, where cervical cancer screening, vaccination, treatment and palliative care are more affordable, available, accessible and acceptable to the underprivileged population.

Our Mission:

To deliver cervical cancer screening to women and girls in India using screen and treat approach, aligned with the WHO (World Health Organization) cervical cancer elimination goals, prioritizing the underprivileged population.

Founder's Message

  • bThe idea of Aabir Bio-Services Foundation stemmed from an urge to help family, friends, and loved ones with crucial awareness about cervical cancer that can be prevented through simple awareness, timely screening, vaccination and treatment. However, it soon transformed beautifully into a platform that helped us connect brilliant scientific minds and the concept of preventive health with the masses who needed information but didn’t know where to look for it. This in turn helped dispel many myths and clear misconceptions about preventive healthcare services in general and disease prevention and control among women and girls in particular.
