World No-Tobacco Day is observed to highlight the health risks associated with tobacco use and advocate for effective policies to reduce tobacco consumption. This day aims to raise awareness of the harmful and deadly effects of tobacco use and second-hand smoke exposure, and to discourage the use of tobacco in any form. The focus is on educating people about the dangers of tobacco, the business practices of tobacco companies, what the World Health Organization (WHO) is doing to fight the tobacco epidemic, and what people around the world can do to claim their right to health and healthy living and to protect future generations. Activities include public marches, educational programs, public announcements, and discussions on tobacco control policies. It's a day to encourage individuals to abstain from all forms of tobacco consumption for a 24-hour period, promoting a healthier, tobacco-free world.
