The WHO Framework Convention for Tobacco Control Knowledge Hub for Articles 17 and 18 works to develop, analyze, synthesize and disseminate knowledge on these two articles – which relate to economically viable alternatives to tobacco production, and to the protection of the environment and the health of persons.
It supports the Convention Secretariat to facilitate the exchange of information and cooperation between Parties, providing assistance to Parties in the implementation of articles 17 and 18.
The WHO FCTC Knowledge Hub for Articles 17 and 18 is housed in Brazil, in the Center for Studies on Tobacco or Health (CETAB) of the Sergio Arouca National School of Public Health (ENSP), at Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz).
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on the establishment of a Knowledge Hub at CETAB was signed by the Convention Secretariat and Fiocruz on 9th July 2020.
