Smokers in many countries are witnessing rapid changes consequent to to the introduction of new reduced-risk products, or due to changes in product prices or regulations. It is important to have up-to-date data available and analyzable at national and subnational levels to track progress and to help guide the actions of consumers, regulators, and other stakeholders. To continually refine the Foundation’s activities, we seek to identify data gaps in tobacco research.
We address these data gaps by commissioning:
.@GlobalStateTHR’s #THRSP supports scholars around the world who want to advance critical knowledge about tobacco harm reduction. Scholars interested in advancing the evidence-based research needed to end the tobacco epidemic are invited to apply by 11/30: https://thrsp.net/
The Commission Report: Reignite the Fight Against Smoking found that #China and #India are home to more than 500 million tobacco users between the ages of 16 and 64. Read more of the findings and new solutions for preventing deaths from tobacco use here: https://bit.ly/3mWNhQp
