Smoke Free Greece’s flagship school campaign completed its most successful year to date, reaching over 10,000 students in 120 schools across all 13 regional units of Greece. Trained educators delivered age-appropriate sessions on nicotine addiction, industry marketing tactics, and long-term health consequences of tobacco use.
Feedback from school principals was overwhelmingly positive. “The materials were scientifically grounded yet accessible,” said one coordinator. “Students left the sessions asking real questions about why they see cigarette imagery in films.”
The campaign is funded entirely through philanthropic support and costs taxpayers nothing. All resources are available free of charge to any Greek school that requests them.
