Mission & Goals
The Smoke Free Partnership (SFP) was created in 2006. The Smoke Free Partnership is a large European coalition of NGOs that works on EU policy analysis and advocacy, mobilising decision makers to make tobacco control a political priority. SFP Main partners are the Belgian Foundation Against Cancer, Cancer Research UK, the European Heart Network, the Health Funds for a Smokefree Netherlands, le Comité National contre le Tabagisme and the Norwegian Cancer Society. The SFP Coalition includes almost 60 organisations from all over Europe. SFP recognises that the tobacco pandemic is nurtured by a global industry which transcends national boundaries and goes beyond the European arena. Thus, SFP is working with policy makers at EU level to ensure that tobacco control receives adequate political attention and increasing resources at global level.
