Aspire 2025

Smokefree outdoors forum

 Thursday 23 February 2012

 The Cancer Society and Massey University invite you to a one-day forum to discuss the ways and means of implementing smokefree outdoor areas. The forum will cover the critical areas of:

• policy design
• cost enforcement
• compliance
• implementation and communication

 There will be presentations and workshops with a range of local authority and public health experts. The New Zealand government has adopted the aim of a smokefree New Zealand by 2025, and this forum will help local authorities to take part and benefit from this move.
