Rabat - Despite a decline among younger generations, smoking remains prominent  across Morocco, with recent studies showing that nearly a quarter of men in the country are regular smokers.

The economic and health cost of tobacco have been well-documented for decades. Lung cancer is the most well-known side effect of smoking, but its economic cost and manufacturing circumstances have also come under the spotlight lately.

There remains one major issue, however, that despite efforts remains endemic according to many in the country: secondhand smoke.
