WVA is delighted to announce that Joseph Magero has joined the WVA’s advisory board!

To celebrate the news, the WVA Director Michael Landl said: “I am excited to welcome Joseph Magero as a part of the WVA’s advisory board. Joseph is leading the Campaign for Safer Alternatives — an organisation that advocates for tobacco harm reduction and progressive vaping policies across Africa. I am looking forward to working with Joseph with joint efforts!”

Joseph ist Vorsitzender von die Kampagne für sicherere Alternativen, eine panafrikanische Organisation, die sich für die Einführung von Richtlinien zur Reduzierung der Tabakschäden in Afrika einsetzt. Joseph verfügt außerdem über umfangreiche Erfahrung in der Arbeit zur Tabakkontrolle und zur Schaffung rauchfreier Umgebungen. 

“Despite my efforts, smoking deaths remained on the increase, mandating a rethink in my approach to tobacco control,“ stated Joseph. Consequently, he now champions substituting conventional cigarettes with reduced-risk products for smokers to reduce smoking-related diseases and mortality in Africa.
