Overview
The impact assessment for the implementation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC) was conducted in the Philippines from 12 to 15 April 2016. The mission was led by members of the independent Impact Assessment Expert Group, established by the Conference of the Parties.
The Philippines has made significant
advances using the WHO FCTC as a basis
and legal instrument to adopt comprehensive tobacco control measures at both
national and local levels. It has served as
a guide for the implementation of tobacco control activities in the country by
providing a larger vision, defining desired
outcomes, setting out priorities and monitoring progress.
