Men, Cancer & HPV Initiative
Along with our partners NOMAN Is An Island: Race To End HPV, GAMH is developing an initiative on Men, Cancer & HPV making the case for GNV: gender-neutral (universal) HPV vaccination.
On this page you’ll find links to the activities, reports and newsletter that form part of this initiative. We also have a separate website that includes our Call To Action for Global GNV: endhpvglobal.
Our letter to the WHO
In April 2026, along with our partners NOMAN is an Island: Race to End HPV, we delivered an open letter to the World Health Organization (WHO), calling on it to implement the UN Political Declaration Commitment to HPV Vaccination for Boys and Girls. You can view our letter and our response to the political declaration we are asking to be implemented.
