Dublin, 23 juni 2025<\/strong> \u2013 Zoals de Wereldconferentie over tabakscontrole<\/a> (WCTC) opent zijn deuren in Dublin. Een lichtshow verlichtte vanavond het conferentiecentrum en verbeeldde visueel de stemmen van miljoenen consumenten die ongehoord en onvertegenwoordigd blijven in de wereldwijde discussies over tabaksontmoediging. De campagne "Voices Unheard \u2013 Consumers Matter!" is gelanceerd door de World Vapers' Alliance om de voortdurende uitsluiting van consumentenperspectieven in de debatten over tabaksontmoediging aan te vechten.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Michael Landl, directeur van de World Vapers' Alliance, zegt:<\/p>\n

\u201cTerwijl beleidsmakers achter gesloten deuren debatteren, blijven miljoenen consumenten in het ongewisse. Onze stemmen doen ertoe en kunnen niet genegeerd worden. <\/em>Machtige belangengroepen, zoals die van Michael Bloomberg, blijven aandringen op verboden die ervoor zorgen dat veiligere alternatieven van de markt verdwijnen.<\/em><\/strong> Deze aanpak negeert wetenschappelijk bewijs en de ervaringen in de praktijk van miljoenen volwassenen die succesvol zijn gestopt met roken met behulp van producten met een lager risico. <\/em>Beleidsmakers moeten naar consumenten luisteren en hun beslissingen baseren op feiten, niet op ideologie of de invloed van rijke donoren.<\/em><\/strong>"
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Met de aanstaande COP11 in Gen\u00e8ve later dit jaar is het belangrijker dan ooit dat de stemmen van degenen die het zwaarst getroffen worden door tabaks- en nicotinebeleid, worden betrokken bij het besluitvormingsproces. Terwijl honderden besluitvormers samenkomen om tabaksontmoediging te bespreken, worden consumenten \u2013 degenen die het zwaarst getroffen worden door het beleid \u2013 aan de kant geschoven. De lichtshow symboliseert hun monddood maken en brengt een krachtige boodschap over: "Wij zijn er, maar jullie luisteren niet." De campagne roept op tot oprechte inclusie en een plaats aan tafel voor degenen die dagelijks met de gevolgen van beleidsbeslissingen leven.<\/p>\n

De lancering van de campagne vindt plaats te midden van hernieuwde aanvallen van de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (WHO) op schadebeperking, met een recente oproep tot een verbod op alle nicotineproducten met smaakstoffen<\/a>, waaronder e-sigaretten en nicotinezakjes.<\/p>\n

Alberto G\u00f3mez Hern\u00e1ndez, beleids- en belangenbehartigingsmanager voor de WVA, zegt:<\/p>\n

\u201cHet verbieden van smaken gaat niet om bescherming, maar om het ontzeggen van de hulpmiddelen die volwassenen nodig hebben om te stoppen met roken. <\/em>De aanpak van de WHO is wereldvreemd en brengt levens in gevaar. Wetenschap en consumenten moeten hun mond houden.<\/em><\/strong>"<\/em><\/p>\n

De campagne zal het hele jaar doorgaan en pleit voor een op bewijs gebaseerd schadebeperkingsbeleid. Ook wordt de status quo, die consumenten geen stem geeft, aangevochten, terwijl de wereld zich voorbereidt op COP11 in Gen\u00e8ve.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
