WHO is pleased to announce the theme for the 2025 World No Tobacco Day (WNTD) campaign: “Unmasking the Appeal: Exposing Industry Tactics on Tobacco and Nicotine Products.” This year, the campaign will focus on revealing the tactics that the tobacco and nicotine industries use to make their harmful products seem attractive.
為什麼以此為主軸?
Why this theme?
儘管全球菸害防制有顯著進展,但菸草與尼古丁產業仍持續調整策略以吸引及維持消費族群,而這些策略削弱公共衛生、並且特別針對易受傷害族群,尤其是青少年。
Despite significant progress in global tobacco control, the tobacco and nicotine industries continue to adapt their strategies to attract and retain consumers. These efforts undermine public health and target vulnerable groups, particularly youth.
透過揭露菸商的策略,世界衛生組織希望能倡導更強力的政策,並使 民眾 更 認識 該等政策 ,包括禁止使用讓菸草或尼古丁產品更具吸引力 之 風味 等 保護公眾健康的政策。
By exposing these tactics, WHO seeks to drive awareness, advocate for stronger policies, including a ban on flavours that make tobacco and nicotine products more appealing, and protect public health.
世界衛生組織稱之為「明亮的產品,黑暗的意圖」。
Bright products. Dark intentions.
菸品、尼古丁及相關產品的吸引力,特別是針對年輕人的部分,為當前公共衛生主要挑戰; 菸草與尼古丁產業為維護其利益, 持續費盡心思增加菸草產品的吸引力、增加風味及其他成分以改變其氣味、口味與外觀,透過這些添加物與方式以掩 蓋 菸草產品的刺激性,進而改善口感這些菸草產品具有吸引人的風味,但卻潛藏危險;菸商正 運用精心設計的產品和欺騙的策略以吸引新世代的使用者、保留原有使用者。吸引新世代的使用者、保留原有使用者。
One of the primary public health challenges today is the attractiveness of tobacco, nicotine, and related products, particularly to young audiences. The industry consistently tries to find ways to make these products appealing, adding flavours and other agents that change their smell, taste, or appearance. These additives are designed to mask the harshness of tobacco, thereby increasing its palatability, particularly among young people. Shameless manipulation of our children, for industry profit. Every day, tobacco and nicotine industries use carefully engineered products and deceptive tactics to hook a new generation of users and keep existing ones. Appealing flavours, but hidden dangers.

An estimated 37 million children aged 13-15 years worldwide use tobacco. In many countries the rate of e-cigarette use of young people exceeds that of adults. Marketing content promoting e-cigarettes, nicotine pouches and heated tobacco products has been viewed more than 3.4 billion times on social media platforms. Flavours are found in many nicotine and tobacco products. There are about 16 000 unique flavours. Flavours are often cited as the number one reason for initiation of nicotine and tobacco products use.

Manipulative product designs, attractive flavours, and glamourized marketing create a false sense of security and evoke desirability. These tactics can contribute to early initiation of smoking or nicotine use, with potential lifelong addiction and health consequences. By making these products more attractive, the industry not only boosts their immediate consumer base but also makes quitting harder, prolonging exposure to harmful substances. Nicotine and tobacco products are highly addictive and designed to sustain use, trapping users in a cycle of dependence. Additives mask the harshness of tobacco, making it easier to start and harder to quit.
