Australia & New Zealand

Various cancer awareness activities

OAZ (Olympus Australia Pty Ltd. and Olympus New Zealand Limited) has undertaken several varying activities in an effort to raise awareness pertaining to cancer. By partnering with established NGOs including not-for-profit organizations, OAZ has four key initiatives.
The first is to increase community awareness. The second initiative is to provide aid - financially or equipment to aid NGO's campaigns. The third is to provide professional education opportunities to developing countries by supporting with the Australia & New Zealand Gastroenterology International Training Association (ANZGITA ). And the last one is to create public education opportunities.
By partaking in these activities, OAZ hopes that there will be three broader outcomes:

• 1. An increase in Cancer Recognition
• 2. Improved interaction with local communities
• 3. Improvement in patient care in developing countries

We feel that these outcomes will naturally lead to future positive impacts in our greater community.
