Brazil Impact Assessment

Factsheet

Overview

The impact assessment for the implementation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC) was conducted in Brazil from 25 to 28 April 2016. The mission was led by members of the independent Impact Assessment Expert Group, established by the Conference of the Parties.

Brazil has taken advantage of the WHO FCTC as a legal instrument. The Convention’s impact was felt as soon as negotiations began. It has served as an overarching framework to promote and guide tobacco control efforts and strategies.
