(2025) Effective cervical cancer prevention in sub-Saharan Africa needs the inclusion of men as key stakeholders. Frontiers in Oncology 15:1509685. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2025.1509685.2234-943X (online)10.3389/fonc.2025.1509685http://hdl.handle.net/2263/102160Cervical cancer is a major public health problem in low-middle-income countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Strategies for cervical cancer prevention are multi-sectorial, often involving many stakeholders. However, male engagement is still not fully embraced. Involving men in cervical cancer prevention can potentially increase access to prevention services and promote health equity among women. Men’s involvement can overcome barriers to women’s access to preventive services and increase community awareness of cervical cancer prevention.en© 2025 Dzobo and Dzinamarira.
