Advocacy through transparency, collaboration and action
The Australian Council on Smoking and Health (ACOSH) is Australia’s leading tobacco control advocacy organisation with a proud history stretching back over 50 years. We are an independent coalition of health, education, community, social service, and research organisations from across the country.
Our goal is an Australia free from tobacco and nicotine addiction. We work with governments and communities to drive meaningful change through policies and regulations that reduce smoking and vaping plus protect against the harmful effects of other novel nicotine products.
There is no room for complacency in tobacco control. Protecting our gains and countering industry influence requires tobacco control to remain a top priority at federal, state, and local levels.
Our advocacy priorities align with the WA Health Promotion Strategic Framework and the National Tobacco Strategy 2023 – 2030.
