On 30 May 2022, a global consumer group World Vapers’ Alliance (WVA) will host its third annual World Vape Day, just one day before WHO’s World No Tobacco Day. The choice of the date is not coincidental and is set to showcase that vaping and other harm reduction tools are one of the most efficient ways to help smokers quit.

“Together, we want to tell the world that millions of smokers have already made the switch to vaping and to a better life, and we call on advocates and consumers to raise their voices, promote vaping and help current smokers to switch as well. We have seen many unfounded attacks on vaping by the WHO and with World Vape Day we want to counter this misinformation,” said the Director of World Vapers’ Alliance, Michael Landl.

Der diesjährige Welttag des Dampfens steht unter dem Motto der Schadensminimierung, da Dampfen zu den effektivsten Mitteln zur Raucherentwöhnung zählt. Das Programm umfasst Gespräche mit Experten für Schadensminimierung, Erfahrungsberichte von Dampf-Aktivisten aus aller Welt und präsentiert verschiedene Kampagnen der WVA zum Thema Dampfen.

“World Vape Day is a special occasion for our global community to come together and celebrate vaping as a tool that helped so many people change their lives for the better. On this day we can all raise our voices and tell politicians that vaping saves lives,” said WVA’s community manager, Liza Katsiashvili.

The event will be streamed live worldwide on Monday 30th May starting at 6PM CET. More details about the program can be found here: www.worldvapersalliance.com/world-vape-day
