According Blanca Ugarte Guzman, president of this Foundation, in Ecuador there are more than 3,000 women with breast cancer detected and ensures that from 36,000 women served by her Foundation in different provinces of the country, only 6000 have received Social Security or bond.

That’s why this statement aims to find a public policy, based on that 69% of women who manage to escape, it’s because they were able to detect the disease early. That’s why it is necessary to involve the Health and Education ministries; however they cannot achieve the expected support from the Assembly of the Committee on Health.
