Surveillance & Evaluation

The Institute for Global Tobacco Control (IGTC) conducts tobacco control surveillance and evaluation through training and mentoring, needs assessment, development of tracking tools and research.

With support from the Rockefeller Foundation, the Institute has held workshops in Southeast Asia on surveillance and evaluation methods for more than 60 participants from Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Laos, Indonesia and Taiwan.

The IGTC has also funded 12 surveillance projects in Southeast Asia using standardized multi-country protocols, research tools and a regional surveillance database.
