Dedicated to all the brave, insightful, powerful women who participated in the study. Each story contributed significantly. Thank you for giving your voices to this issue. PREAMBLE Breast cancer connects dots between economic, political, health and social systems. The narratives of the women in this study bring out missing links of the traditional breast cancer narratives. They centre the marginalization of women's experiences and make significant contributions to new strategies for the primary prevention of breast cancer in workplaces, communities, and beyond. This project concluded during the Covid-19 pandemic. The implication that individuals are to blame for health problems and how governance matters to health were apparent through Covid-19. The virus and public health responses illustrated how health is nested in the conditions in which the individuals live, work and play. Covid-19 is an environmental health issue. So too is breast cancer.
