The Institute for Global Tobacco Control has been actively involved in developing curriculum and providing training in tobacco control in the United States and across the world. Since 2003, the Institute has established Centers of Excellence for Education and Training in Tobacco Control in three countries: Brazil, China and Mexico. The Centers are funded under the Fogarty International Center grant, "Epidemiology and Intervention Research for Tobacco Control," to Johns Hopkins. They are an expansion of our collaboration project with partner institutions in each country and allow for additional workshops and training sessions on tobacco control topics. They are a critical stepping stone for advancing tobacco control knowledge in Brazil, China and Mexico. |
