Smoke-Free Military (SFM)

Project Goal:

To work with military officers and personnel and others to create tobacco control movement in Cambodia that promotes, supports and implements tobacco free lives and policies. And to enhance learning with the use of creative Information Education Communication materials.

Project Objectives:

Cooperate with the Royal Cambodia Army Force (RCAF) Head office of Health and the ministry of national defence to work on tobacco control.

Increase awareness among military personnel and their families throughout Cambodia of the harmful effects of tobacco and the benefits of smoke-free lifestyles and policies.

Increase the spread of smoking cessation interventions, especially via trained, non-smoking military personnel, that allows them to act as positive role models and support the implementation of smoke free policies.

Actively engage government and NGO partners in tobacco control activities and discussions about tobacco control policy that will complement the ADRA TOH program.
