Our goal is to prioritize public health by fighting against the commercial interests of tobacco. To achieve this, our mission is based on three pillars: knowledge, communication, and action.

Oxysuisse is guided by the WHO Framework Convention and international best practices in tobacco control, with an approach focused on the commercial determinants of health, as a complement to behavioral prevention.
