Tobacco/Challenge Big Tobacco
Every year, tobacco kills almost six million people.
Big Tobacco is driving the world’s greatest preventable epidemic of death and disease, aggressively expanding in the world’s lowest-income countries. Our campaign saves lives by working with allies across the globe to secure health policies over the objection, intimidation and interference of the tobacco industry. Learn More
Big Tobacco spends nearly $12.8 billion annually marketing its products in the U.S. alone. That's $3.5 million a day.
Featured Success
Global Tobacco Treaty Unanimously Adopted
We helped ensure the unanimous adoption of the global tobacco treaty, the first global public health and corporate accountability treaty. The treaty protects nearly 90 percent of the world’s population.
"From the start, Corporate Accountability International has played a vital role in challenging tobacco industry interference, one of the greatest threats to the implementation of the World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control."
Dr Douglas W. Bettcher, Director, Tobacco Free Initiative Department, WHO
