On Monday, May 30, the vaping community worldwide will be celebrating harm reduction efforts around the globe. The choice of date is not coincidental and falls just one day before the World No Tobacco Day proclaimed by the WHO: precisely to showcase that vaping and other harm reduction tools are one of the most efficient ways to help smokers quit.
Join our live streams starting at 6 PM CET on 30 May 2022

World Vape Day is right around the corner! It’s a joyful day when we celebrate the lives saved by this innovative technology. To help you invite your friends and your community, we prepared lots of promo materials – and they are free to use and publish for everyone!
Vaping has the potential to ensure 200 million smokers quit forever, but governments must encourage and facilitate it as a cessation method Now more than ever, it is vital that vapers’ voices are heard.
That’s why we’re taking our campaign out on the road, across Europe and around the world. We need to ensure that those making the key decisions that will affect OUR rights, OUR health and OUR futures, hear OUR collective voice and ‘Back Vaping. Beat Smoking.’
