Is the world achieving the 2025 target on tobacco use?
A 30% relative reduction in prevalence of current tobacco use by 2025
Baseline: 2010
Each country has its own specific prevalence target
Working towards the target is voluntary
WHO monitors progress using data from countries
What is the tobacco target?
Tobacco's contribution to illness and death via noncommunicable diseases has been well-proven
Adopting the target will have a direct and measurable impact on reducing NCD deaths and disease
The target is achievable, but needs concerted effort
Why the target?
“We acknowledge that the global burden and threat of NCDs constitutes one of the major challenges for sustainable development in the twenty-first century”
(paragraph 141)
NCDs in the SDGs
NCDs included in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
By 2030:
Reduce by one third premature mortality from NCDs by prevention, treatment and promoting mental health and well-being
Strengthen the implementation of the WHO FCTC
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
The work of WHO in fighting NCDs
Goal:To reduce the preventable and avoidable burden of morbidity, mortality and disability due to NCDs by means of multisectoral collaboration and cooperation at national, regional and global levels
WHO Global NCD Action Plan 2013-2020
Halt the rise in diabetes
and obesity
A 10% relative reduction in prevalence of insufficient physical activity
At least a 10% relative reduction in the harmful use of alcohol
A 25% relative reduction in risk of premature mortality from cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes or chronic respiratory diseases
An 80% availability of the
affordable basic technologies and
essential medicines, incl.
generics, required to treat NCDs
A 30% relative reduction in
prevalence of current tobacco
use
A 30% relative
reduction in mean
population intake of
salt/sodium
A 25% relative reduction in prevalence of raised blood pressure or contain the prevalence of raised blood pressure
At least 50% of eligible people
receive drug therapy and
counselling to prevent heart
attacks and strokes
Where to focus: 9 global NCD targets
How are we monitoring the tobacco target?
Smoking data are available from 181 countries (women) and 178 countries (men).
To assess trends in smoking over time, we need at least two surveys since 1990. We have sufficient surveys for 149 countries.
Countries with little or no data are either in crisis or have low commitment to tobacco control.

Meeting the tobacco target by 2025
Will meeting the tobacco target reduce mortality?
• Policy effects have been measured for:– Higher taxes and prices– Smoke-free laws– Graphic health warnings– TAPS bans– Mass media campaigns– Cessation services
What brings down prevalence?
• Policy effects are largely unknown for:– Banning sales to minors– Regulation of tobacco product contents– Regulation of tobacco product disclosures– Stemming illicit trade– Supporting alternative livelihoods– Promoting sensitization and awareness among
healthcare workers, educators, media professionals, public and private agencies and NGOs
What brings down prevalence?

Mortality outcomes - Fiji
Contribution of six risk factors to achieving the 25×25 NCD mortality reduction target
Kontis, V et al., Lancet 2014; 384
• Authors from WHO, Imperial College London, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Toronto, University of Toronto, Technische Universität Dresden and University of Auckland. Funded by UK MRC.
• Findings: Even if the agreed risk factor targets are met, the 25% reduction in premature mortality target will not be met– If risk factor targets are achieved, the probability of dying prematurely from the
four main NCDs will decrease by 22% in men and by 19% in women – If trends continue as per business-as-usual, the probability of dying prematurely
will decrease by only 11% in men and 10% in women
• If the tobacco use target were to be increased from 30% to a 50% reduction, the mortality target for men would almost be achieved.
Global mortality outcomes
• Cut in youth initiation• Increase in cessation rates• Synergy effect - multiple policy actions
working together• Network effect – background effects of policy
actions and public awareness over time
What will reduce prevalence?
• Multisectoral implementation of WHO FCTC– Top levels of government– Ministries of Health– Ministries of Finance, Customs and Excise
Leadership
• WHO engages with non-State actors– Donors and philanthropic organisations– Academic institutions– NGOs
• Civil society• Mass media• Communities• Individuals• Social movements
