CC screening (CCS) is key to preventing these deaths. Awareness of past CCS, its determinants, and uptake of CCS after receiving information is crucial to informing prevention programming.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A two-phase community based cross-sectional survey was conducted among 600 randomly selected women aged 25-65 years, from two Ugandan districts (Mukono and Wakiso). Participants completed a baseline questionnaire that assessed their knowledge, attitudes, and past practices related to CCS. Information on cervical cancer and screening was provided during and after the survey to encourage uptake, which was assessed three months later. Logistic regression identified factors associated with past CCS and follow-up uptake after information giving.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Few women [5.3%, (32\/600)] were aware that Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection causes CC.
