World No Tobacco Day 2023


Tobacco growing poses threats to our health, the well-being of farmers, and the overall health of our planet. The tobacco industry actively hinders initiatives to replace tobacco farming, exacerbating the global food crisis. This campaign aims to urge governments to discontinue subsidies for tobacco growing and allocate the saved funds to assist farmers in transitioning to more sustainable crops that enhance food security and nutrition.
