Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

(1) In support of further developing the work on tobacco, projects proposals should focus on:
Mapping, assessment evaluation and dissemination of recent developments and best practice in tobacco control in the Member States, targeting in particular young people and women; communication strategies for prevention and cessation and addressing socio-economic aspects;
Develop and network prevention and cessation activities, focusing on innovative approaches to denormalisation and on reducing exposure to tobacco smoke;
Other EU and internal activities to implement requirements derived from the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, such as work on tobacco ingredients, surveillance or illicit trade in tobacco products.

Developing an inventory and monitoring of country-based experiences;
Economic and health impact assessments of different policy options;
Capacity building for effective programme and policy implementation.

Harm reduction responses to emerging trends related to psychoactive substances with a focus on ecstasy, crack/cocaine and cannabis use;
Development or improvement and implementation of joint prevention programmes in public services, education and relevant NGOs focusing on socially disadvantaged groups;
An inventory of good practice on drug treatment and its effects, covering also reintegration, to follow-up actions set out in the Action Plan.
