Reducing the burden of Esophageal cancer
in Southern Africa

Esophageal cancer takes more than 28,000 lives each year in Africa, often within just 3–6 months of diagnosis. With most patients presenting late and limited awareness of treatment options, this project wasn’t just about a website—it was about creating access, building trust, and giving patients and caregivers a chance to act before it’s too late.

Impact beyond the numbers

The website became a catalyst for change—sparking interest from over 15 global institutions committed to supporting early detection and treatment of esophageal cancer.

The problem.

How might we create an accessible, trusted platform that empowers patients, families, and physicians in high-cancer risk regions to better understand, detect, and act on esophageal cancer—before it’s too late?

The team.

1 UX designer, 1 Webflow designer, and 1 researcher.
We worked in parallel on deliverables but kept our roles distinct — this helped us move fast, stay clear on who owned what, and manage stakeholder expectations without confusion.

The team needed to raise donations for

Affordable endoscopic

Equipment and Repairs

Support for attendance at

AfrECC training programs

and meetings

Support for fieldwork and

analytical collaborative

research

Education for patients, health

care workers, donors and

Ministries of Health

The team had an online presence on the National Cancer Institute Website
