Dubai: Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has marked Pink October with a series of events aimed at promoting health awareness and encouraging preventive care among female employees.
RTA Pink October events have focused on the significance of early breast cancer detection while also fostering holistic wellness through psychological, physical, and nutritional programs.
Led by the RTA Women’s Committee, the month-long initiative has featured workshops and awareness sessions delivered by experts from leading medical and nutritional institutions.
Participants have engaged in activities such as Jesmonite arts and crafts to relieve stress, yoga and breathing exercises to improve mental clarity, and interactive nutrition sessions, including a ‘Make Your Own Salad’ workshop.
Specialist sessions provided insights into preventive measures and treatment options for breast cancer. Dr. Sama Zibdeh, Consultant Breast Surgeon at Al Zahra Hospital Dubai, guided employees on the latest developments in detection and care.
