Unprecedented MPOWER Progress Shows that Battle Against the Tobacco Epidemic is Winnable
One in 10 deaths around the world is caused by tobacco use.

Working in partnership with WHO and governments across the globe, we have helped save at least 30 million lives. This is very encouraging, but there is still a long way to go. We remain committed to staying in- and winning- the fight.
