George Washington University Researcher Has Published New Study Findings on Public Health (How Big Tobacco exploits the UN SDGs to advance its own goals).

A recent study conducted by researchers at George Washington University highlights how the tobacco industry hinders the advancement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by exploiting them for their own benefit. The study focuses on the tobacco industry's influence on SDG 3 (health and well-being), 8 (decent work and economic growth), 13 (climate action), and 17 (partnerships for the goals), particularly in countries like Lebanon. The researchers suggest measures to address the industry's impact on SDG progress and advocate for curbing harmful practices to promote public health. [Extracted from the article]
