The policy implementation playbook
BACKGROUND: Tobacco industry interference during policy development is well documented, yet evidence on how the industry responds after policies are adopted and enter into force remains fragmented across policy domains and jurisdictions. This study systematically examines post-adoption tobacco industry conduct across key tobacco control measures and develops a cross-policy taxonomy of post-adoption tactics. We conducted as scoping review and qual…
Developing and evaluating an educational intervention on conflicts of interest and corporate influence on science
Financial conflicts of interest resulting from corporate funding of research can bias the evidence base. We designed an educational intervention that sought to enable participants to make informed decisions and mitigate risk when considering corporate funding for research.

Influencing public perception is a key way in which all transnational corporations (TNCs) maintain market dominance and political power. Transnational tobacco companies (TTCs) have a long history of leveraging narratives to serve commercial ambitions.

Quantifying and characterising tobacco content in the most in-demand streamed series in 10 low/middle-income countries in 2019

There is an urgent need to better enforce tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship legislation in LMICs, and to update WHO FCTC guidance in line with rapidly evolving media platforms and content that is available internationally
