About Our Web Site Header

For many thousands of years men and women in Africa — from the earliest residents of the Rift and the Nile valleys to the southern African Bushmen — have been creating knowledge, art, and social structures that have impacted the way the world is today.

The image we have chosen to use as a header on Prostate Cancer Africa shows Bushman rock art from c. 1,000 BCE, It has been reproduced here with the kind permission of the Adventure Learning Foundation.

A key goal of Prostate Cancer Africa is to “give back” knowledge to modern African communities from the stores of information that have been accumulated in the Western world in the more recent 400-500 years.
