WHO global report on trends in prevalence of tobacco use 2000–2024 and projections 2025–2030
The new WHO report presents updated estimates of tobacco use among people aged 15 and older from 2000 to 2024, with projections to 2030. It tracks global, regional, and country-level trends and serves as a key measure of progress in implementing the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. The estimates, updated every two years, represent WHO’s official data for Sustainable Development Goal indicator 3.a.1 and also support monitoring of the Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases 2013–2020 and the WHO Fourteenth General Programme of Work.
