.@Formula1 is building a global youth audience by partnering with @Disney, @LEGO_Group and @Mattel Hot Wheels. Tobacco giants Philip Morris International and British American Tobacco are cashing in, sponsoring F1 teams to promote their nicotine pouch and e-cigarette brands.
Ahead of F1’s Miami Grand Prix on May 3, we’re launching a new ad campaign, End the Formula, calling on F1 to end all tobacco sponsorships. The same sport that partners with tobacco companies shouldn’t help Big Tobacco peddle addiction to kids.

Strong health systems depend on a strong health workforce.
Dentists, physicians, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists and many other health professionals bring essential expertise to patient care. Together, they shape how health systems respond to complex health challenges.
