ACOSH works through advocacy and collaboration to create comprehensive strategies to reduce the health consequences of smoking. We aim to reduce overall smoking rates in WA, including within groups with a high prevalence of smoking, through targeted campaigns.
We’re committed to limiting the tobacco industry’s ability to advertise, promote and sell its products in WA.
ACOSH also aims to raise awareness in the community on issues relating to smoking & health, and lobby governments in the fight against tobacco.
A range of strategies is required to meet our goals and objectives. As well as regular campaigns targeting specific groups, we engage with community leaders and government organisations to facilitate change in areas that matter most to them. We’re also working to remove the tobacco industry’s financial incentive to trade in WA.
We support the Government to increase its investment in public education, community programs, school education, teacher training and other forms of tobacco education and control. Our strategies also include establishing a wide and diverse range of smoke-free places in WA.
