The report Saving 600,000 in Nigeria and Kenya highlights the transformative potential of Tobacco Harm Reduction (THR) strategies, such as e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches, to save over 600,000 lives by 2060.
By embracing these innovative solutions, Africa can lead a new era of public health, reducing harm while respecting the continent’s unique cultural and economic realities.
