The Foundation seeks to reduce barriers to quitting and/or switching from combustibles and other toxic tobacco products. They seek to strengthen understanding, knowledge, and research capacity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where most smokers live but often are overlooked, and for others who often are marginalized. To do so, the Foundation starts with a carefully developed understanding of the research being conducted globally, the gaps in current knowledge, and where funding for tobacco control research is limited.
The grantee partners are leading global public health organizations that are using innovation and leveraging their vast experience to advance the vital mission in impactful ways.
