Channel the outrage

“Channel the outrage (Using the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) to build a global public health movement)” is an NGO collaborated project that aims to successfully advocate for public health policies that will curb the tobacco epidemic and to increase support for the ratification and implementation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC). The project was conducted in Regional Office for South-East Asia in 2 phases.

The first phase started in 2002 during the negotiations of the WHO FCTC. Proposals were called from non-governmental organisations (NGOs) for projects that will advocate for policies to curb the epidemic and that support the implementation of a strong WHO FCTC. Grants of up to US$ 10,000 and mini grants up to US$ 1,000 were offered to NGOs who work in the area of tobacco control.

 

The second phase of the project was initiated after the adoption of the WHO FCTC by the 56th World Health Assembly. WHO in partnership with United Nations Foundation (UNF) called for projects that support the objectives of this movement. Grants of up to US$ 8,000 and US$ 2,000 were offered in this phase.
