Prevention is an important part of our lives. It is our only measure to prevent and defend ourselves against undesirable phenomena. Although prevention is so important to us, we usually voluntarily avoid it in order not to eventually get the bad news.

Imagine a person depicted in the dark, in ignorance. Prevention, and therefore Inspection, is the only thing that can pull him out of ignorance. It is this ignorance that is man's greatest enemy. Prevention is the light and hope that permeates the darkness, it is man's only chance to free himself from fear, and it is the first step towards healing.

Background
The area under consideration is located on the premises of the Masaryk Cancer Institute at Žlutý Hill. The plot overlooking Old Brno offers many opportunities to become a destination not only for the patients of the Institute, but also as a viewpoint attracting the public and thus raising awareness of prevention.
