De EU stelt nieuwe, strenge standpunten voor tijdens COP11.<\/b><\/p>\n

De beweging voor schadebeperking staat opnieuw voor grote uitdagingen, ditmaal vanuit het hart van de Europese Unie. <\/span>Een uitgelekt concept<\/span><\/a> Een document van de Europese Commissie onthult voorgestelde standpunten voor de aanstaande COP11-conferentie in het kader van het WHO-Raamverdrag inzake tabaksbestrijding. Verontrustend genoeg suggereert het document dat de EU mogelijk volledige verboden op e-sigaretten en nicotinezakjes zal steunen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dergelijke voorstellen gaan veel verder dan wat wetenschappelijk onderzoek of gegevens over de volksgezondheid ondersteunen. Vapen en andere producten met een verlaagd risico hebben miljoenen mensen geholpen te stoppen met roken. Deze producten zijn niet het probleem, maar juist onderdeel van de oplossing. Het streven naar een volledig verbod zou een stap terug zijn en het risico met zich meebrengen dat de vooruitgang die is geboekt bij het verminderen van de schade door roken in Europa teniet wordt gedaan. Het is tijd om onze stem te laten horen en beleidsmakers eraan te herinneren wat consumenten echt nodig hebben. <\/span>Lees verder.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Zuid-Afrika: De werkelijke impact van tabakswetgeving<\/b><\/p>\n

Positiever nieuws is dat de discussies over schadebeperking wereldwijd doorgaan. In Zuid-Afrika heeft Kurt Yeo een nieuwe aflevering uitgebracht van... <\/span>De Pack Breakers<\/span><\/i> podcast<\/span><\/a>, Met medewerking van Martin van Staden, hoofd beleid bij de Free Market Foundation. Ze bespreken de tabakswetgeving van het land en de impact ervan op gewone burgers. Het is een belangrijke analyse van hoe beleid in de praktijk uitpakt en waarom het belangrijk is om het goed te formuleren.<\/span><\/p>\n

Barbados: Een Caribisch voorbeeld van schadebeperking<\/b><\/p>\n

Ondertussen laat Barbados in het Caribisch gebied tekenen zien van een stap richting een slimmere regulering van nicotinegebruik. In een recent onderzoek<\/span> opiniestuk gepubliceerd in <\/span>De Natie<\/span><\/i><\/a>, We hebben benadrukt waarom Barbados zou moeten kiezen voor schadebeperking in plaats van een verbod. Met een van de laagste rookcijfers in de regio heeft het land een re\u00eble kans om het goede voorbeeld te geven en op te komen voor consumenten die betere opties verdienen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Het is duidelijk dat de opkomst van e-sigaretten op meerdere fronten onder druk staat. Maar als we onze stem laten horen en samen blijven staan, is er nog tijd om de vooruitgang die we hebben geboekt te beschermen en ervoor te zorgen dat schadebeperking een weg vooruit blijft, en geen doodlopende weg.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
