The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2024: A Situation Report
The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2024: A Situation Report is a multi-component publication, grouped into two parts, A Global Perspective and Regional and national insights. The extent to which SNP are replacing and substituting for combustible and risky oral tobacco products is the unifying theme.
A Global Perspective uses the latest evidence and new data projections to report on the current global THR situation and its potential to rapidly reduce the burden of disease and mortality associated with risky tobacco use. Measuring changes in SNP uptake, policy and regulation, it considers how these factors interrelate to support or undermine progress.
- Chapter One: The global smoking epidemic and the role of tobacco harm reduction
- Chapter Two: The evidence for tobacco harm reduction
- Chapter Three: Global progress in tobacco harm reduction
- Chapter Four: Global regulation and control
- Chapter Five: The challenges to tobacco harm reduction
- Chapter Six: Conclusions
Regional and national insights considers the status of tobacco use and THR at the regional or national level. A broader regional focus is applied to Latin America (Section 2) and Eastern Europe and Central Asia (Section 3). Profiles for Japan (S. 4), Aotearoa New Zealand (S. 5), Norway (S. 6), and the UK (S.7) are also available.

L’état mondial de la réduction des risques du tabac 2024: un rapport de situation
« L’état mondial de la réduction des risques du tabac 2024 » : un rapport de situation est un document à plusieurs composantes. Cette publication est divisée en deux parties : « Perspectives mondiales » et « Perspectives régionales et nationales ». La mesure dans laquelle les PNRR remplacent et se substituent au tabac oral combustible et à risque en est le thème fédérateur.
« Perspectives mondiales » s’appuie sur les données les plus récentes et les nouvelles projections de données pour rendre compte de la situation actuelle de la RdRT dans le monde et de son potentiel à réduire rapidement la charge de morbidité et de mortalité associée à l’usage du tabac à risque.
Mesurant l’évolution de l’adoption des PNRR, de la politique et de la réglementation, on y examine la manière dont ces facteurs interagissent pour soutenir ou entraver les progrès.

Tobacco Harm Reduction: A Burning Issue for Asia
Harry Shapiro
The focus of this GSTHR briefing is Asia. Sixty per cent of the world’s smokers live in this region and almost half the global deaths from smoking occur here. Asia is also home to nine in every ten users of smokeless tobacco (SLT), leading to high rates of oral cancer. In a number of countries, public health is severely undermined where governments either control or have a significant stake in domestic tobacco companies. New solutions are needed to tackle the public health threat from smoking and tobacco use - but safer nicotine products are banned in many countries. Would tobacco harm reduction improve public health in Asia? And if so - what are the obstacles that stand in its way?
The formal launch event for the briefing took place online on Sunday 18 April 2021 and was co-hosted with Association of Vapers India.

Fighting the Last War: the WHO and International Tobacco Control
Harry Shapiro (UK) - K•A•C
The latest report from K∙A∙C’s Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction (GSTHR) argues that “tobacco control policy is frozen in time” while “innovative non-combustible nicotine technology and supporting evidence have moved forwards”. The status quo keeps adult smokers smoking rather than switching to safer nicotine, favouring the tobacco industry. Untangling the complex narratives underpinning the approach of the World Health Organisation and international tobacco control NGOs, this report aims to shed a light on the often hidden workings of these institutions, and the motivations behind their refusal to accept tobacco harm reduction as a valid approach to reduce the harms associated with high-risk tobacco use. Furthermore, this report argues that “THR has a complementary role to play in tobacco control and reducing cigarette consumption. Its potential can come to fruition if the international tobacco control community, led by the WHO, can disaggregate combustible from non-combustible tobacco products in its policy and legislative deliberations.”

The Right Side of History: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2022
The Right Side of History: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2022 does not seek to replicate or revisit the previous GSTHR reports in detail. Instead, it steps back and casts an eye over the history of THR. Where did this history begin? And how has it developed? We bring the story right up to date with a final section that attempts to look into the near future.
The emergence of safer nicotine products, especially vaping, has brought seismic disruption to the commercial, clinical, public health, and legislative landscapes. This disruption has dominated the history of tobacco harm reduction so far. This report emphasises that effective harm reduction interventions, at minimal cost to governments and health agencies, can end smoking within a generation. The alternative is a continuation of approaches that will continue to fail those most in need. The price will be counted in the millions of lives that could have otherwise been saved.
The Right Side of History: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2022 is the third of our biennial Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction (GSTHR) reports. Since 2018, the series has been charting progress in the adoption of tobacco harm reduction (THR), an approach which encourages people who smoke or use risky tobacco to switch to the use of safer nicotine products (SNP). These products include nicotine vapes, Swedish-style snus, nicotine pouches and heated tobacco products.
