From smoke-free laws to higher taxes, we’ve seen what works. Now let’s scale it up globally. #FCTCSavesLives #COP11

Behind every tobacco control policy is a story of courage and persistence.

Grateful to stand with advocates worldwide at #COP11 #FCTCSavesLives

Youth aren’t just the future, they’re the present too.

At #COP11 today, young advocates met with Dr. Etienne Krug, Director of the Department for Social Determinants of Health at @WHO, to discuss the essential role of youth engagement in advancing tobacco control around the world.

The global tobacco industry is watching #COP11 closely. Why? Because strong decisions here mean lower profits for them -- and more lives saved. #FCTCSavesLives

At #COP11 in Geneva -- the Conference of the Parties to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control -- delegates, experts, and advocates are working to strengthen global protections against addiction and tobacco industry interference.

At #COP11 in Geneva, young advocates met with Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of @who.int. They called for increased support for youth-led efforts against the tobacco industry.

At #COP11, we see what collective action looks like -- governments, advocates, and organizations united against one of the most lethal industries on earth. #FCTCSavesLives

Youth leaders from Europe, Africa and Latin America gathered today at the #COP11 side event "Youth-led Advocacy: Unmasking Tobacco and Nicotine Industry Narrative to Advance Tobacco-Free Generations."

@ctfkglobal.bsky.social's Global Young Ambassadors have a clear message for #COP11 delegates: our health is not for sale.

As negotiations move forward, we urge leaders to keep the tobacco industry out of the room and put public health first. #FCTCSavesLives

Their message: keep the tobacco industry out of public health policy and make it answer for the harm it has caused to people and the planet. #FCTCSavesLives

A powerful scene at the Broken Chair monument in Geneva as #COP11 gets underway. Advocates from around the world are standing together to confront the Big Tobacco monster and demand real accountability.
November 17, 2025 at 4:18 PM
All of this is preventable -- the tobacco industry fuels this epidemic. Delegates at COP11 in Geneva have the power to prevent future losses by limiting the tobacco industry’s influence and advancing stronger protections for health. #FCTCSavesLives

Today at #COP11, advocates unveiled the Death Clock, a stark reminder of the human toll of tobacco products.

The clock shows how many people have died from tobacco-related disease since 1999, based on WHO estimates.

The Global Young Ambassadors Summit may have ended, but the movement is just getting started.

@ctfkglobal.bsky.social is sending 5 young Ambassadors to Geneva for the Eleventh Session of the Conference of the Parties to the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (#COP11)
November 16, 2025 at 2:52 PM
One day to go until #COP11! Governments will unite in Geneva to strengthen global health protections and hold Big Tobacco accountable. 💪 #FCTCSavesLives
November 16, 2025 at 2:49 PM
The WHO FCTC has saved millions of lives — but the job isn’t done. Starting next week at #COP11 in Geneva, governments have a chance to close loopholes and protect another generation from addiction. #FCTCSavesLives

We’re at the 2025 Global Young Ambassadors Summit to bring youth voices together for stronger tobacco control advocacy and a healthier future.

Leaders from around the world are sharing ideas, taking action & proving that the next generation has the power to create real change – today.

Nothing’s scarier than ultra-processed products and tobacco.

Our advocacy helps fight back.

Happy Halloween from the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (@tobaccofreekids.bsky.social) and the Global Health Advocacy Incubator (@incubatorghai.bsky.social).

We applaud Dr. Amin Mirhadi of Cedars-Sinai for stepping down from The Aoki Foundation board after learning of Steve Aoki’s promotion of IQOS by Philip Morris International.

Tobacco products are deadly and addictive.

Steve Aoki, please end your collaboration with IQOS.
