Tobacco Control

Tobacco could kill a billion people this century. Vital Strategies Tobacco Control Program has worked in 41 countries to deliver evidence-based campaigns and build local capacity to raise awareness about the dangers of tobacco and e-cigarettes. Our campaigns support policy goals such as smoke-free workplaces and tobacco tax increases. Recently, we also focused on encouraging quitting during COVID-19 because smoking increases the risk of a deadly infection.
