Drawing up and Implementing a Comprehensive Tobacco Control Budget
Chapter
Abstract
It has been estimated that, between the 1990s and 2020s, global mortality attributable to smoking will rise from 3 million people per year to 10 million people per year. This paper presents a brief overview of a strategic management approach to developing a tobacco control program. Using the five aspects proposed by Churchman, as well as other strategic management tools and approaches, countries can develop, fund and implement successful tobacco control programs, even with limited budgets, that can help reduce the predicted level of smoking attributable mortality.
