The WHO Framework Convention on To***co Control (WHO FCTC): Why the Late 1990s Created the Perfect Policy Window

In May 1996, through World Health Assembly Resolution 49.17, Member States requested the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) to initiate the development of an international framework convention for to***co control (World Health Assembly, 1996). What followed was one of the most consequential global public health negotiations in history.

I am filled with deep gratitude and quiet joy as I share that I have officially graduated with a Master of Public Health (MPH) from The University of Manchester, United Kingdom, with Distinction. This milestone carries far more meaning than an academic qualification. It represents years of waiting, resilience, and perseverance—often in silence. When I completed my undergraduate degree in 2019, there was no graduation ceremony....

New Series Is Out: The Science of Exercise and Immune System Boosting

In episode 20 of my Physical Exercise and NCDs Series, we explore a fundamental yet often overlooked topic in preventive health: how exercise strengthens the immune system and protects us from non-communicable diseases (NCDs).
