#TCDI #TobaccoControl
Today, IILA, in partnership with @MOH_Kenya, @csea_afric and @DGateway, is convening the Stakeholder Engagement Forum on Tobacco Control in Kenya. Participants will examine credible data, taxation, research, policy implementation, and priorities for the 2026–2030 national strategy.
#TCDIKenya #TCDI #TobaccoControl
I've just looked at the #TCDI Dashboard and some of the data on tobacco's negative I fluency of the Kenyan population is alarming.
The youth prevelance and targeting is one area that needed urgent action and sustainable regulation.

En el Hospital del IESS Teodoro Maldonado Carbo, mafias siguen intentando robar medicinas. La intervención militar ha permitido que los insumos vayan llegando a los pacientes, aunque el proceso todavía continúa.

Day 4 of #TETSiM: Tobacco tax isn’t just a fiscal tool—it’s a lifeline. 🇰🇪
Evidence shows a 20% tax hike could save 49,370 lives and generate KES 23.5B in revenue by 2029. It’s time to choose public health over tobacco profits.
#TobaccoTaxSavesLivesKE #Ascend2026 #TCDI
Doing nothing on tobacco taxation isn't neutral-it's a choice that favors industry profits over Kenyan lives. Low taxes keep cigarettes affordable and youth initiation high. It's time to flip the script.

The TCDI team at @csea_afric and @IILAinfo visited @NACADAKenya and @MOH_Kenya to reinforce our commitment to data-driven tobacco control.
We are grateful for our partners’ leadership in using data to inform national health interventions. 🇰🇪

🚭 When prices don’t rise, youth initiation stays high. Kenya’s future is being smoked away while tobacco companies continue to profit.🔥 Stronger tobacco taxation can reduce consumption and save lives.

💸 Low tobacco taxes mean higher healthcare costs and lost productivity. Money that could strengthen hospitals, schools, and community services is instead spent treating preventable tobacco-related diseases.

🚭 Day 3 of TETSiM Digital Advocacy
⚠️ Doing nothing on tobacco taxation is a policy choice—and it is costing Kenya. Cigarettes remain too affordable, consumption rises, and both lives and revenue are lost.

🚭 TETSiM shows policymakers how tax changes influence youth smoking, deaths averted, and revenue generated. Data-driven tobacco tax policies save lives.

📈 The Tobacco Excise Tax Simulation Model (TETSiM) provides evidence for smarter policy decisions by modeling how different tax scenarios affect tobacco consumption and economic outcomes.

💡 What if policymakers could predict the impact of tobacco tax policies on both public health and government revenue before implementing them?

Day 2 of TETSiM Campaign
📊 Tobacco costs Kenya up to $756 million annually in healthcare and lost productivity. These are resources that could instead support schools, hospitals, and national development.
#TobaccoTaxSavesLivesKE #TobaccoControl #TCDI #Ascend2026 #TIMRA2026
Tobacco continues to place a heavy burden on Kenya’s health system and economy. With 12,000 lives lost annually, the need for stronger tobacco control policies and sustained action has never been more urgent.

💔 Tobacco kills 12,000 Kenyans every year and costs the country up to $756 million annually in healthcare and lost productivity. This is money that could instead support schools, hospitals, and national development.
#TobaccoTaxSavesLivesKE #TobaccoControl #TCDI
2/4⚖️ As highlighted by Hon. James Nyikal, Kenya’s tobacco tax currently stands at about 40%, well below the 70% level recommended by the WHO. Strengthening tobacco taxation is key to reducing tobacco use and protect public health.
#TobaccoTaxSavesLivesKE #TobaccoControl #TCDI
🚬💔 In Kenya, 46% of patients with tobacco-related illnesses had a history of tobacco use.
Cancers of the larynx (70%), lungs (60%), and oral cavity (50%) are heavily linked to smoking.
We need bold tobacco control now.
