Why Invest in Strategic Communication?
Communication is happening all the time; our choice really isn’t whether or not we should participate Is it wise to default?
U.S. tobacco industry marketing and advertising expenses $15.4 billion every year $42 + million every day
U.S. annual health costs related to smoking Private and public health care: $89 billion Productivity losses: $93.6 billion

So Does Good Communication Work?
The tobacco industry thinks so!
The whole advertising world thinks so!
Politicians, religious leaders, journalists, etc., think so!
Public health professionals: “We are not sure?”

So Does Good Communication Work?
There is overwhelming evidence that good communication is one of the most important tools for public health
While there is evidence that poor communication does not work, there are also instances where: Government does not work Medical mistakes cause death Schools are ineffective International agencies do more harm than good

Which Communication Medium Is Best?
This is like asking which is better: Leadership or management? Prevention or treatment? Interpersonal communication or mass media?
Good carpenters do not debate, “which is better, a hammer or a screwdriver?”
We need all tools and we should use them according to need
32 2008 Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
What Counts Is “Craftsmanship!”
There is no magic medium; there are no silver bullets
We need to learn how to use more effectively the wide spectrum of communication technology to achieve the following: Significant reductions in smoking prevalence Smoke free societies

What Can Communication Do?
Simply look at the Framework Convention: Advocate for:
Signature, tax legislation, advertising/promotion bans, smoke free workplaces, pack warnings, no sales to minors, anti-smuggling legislation, and enforcement of laws
Change the image of tobacco and smoking Help smokers quit (cessation programs) and help non-
smokers remain smoke free Build self-efficacy and encourage enforcement Change social norms
