Description
The Member States of the World Health Organization (WHO) created “World No Tobacco Day” in 1987 to draw global attention to the tobacco epidemic and the preventable death and disease it causes. In 1987, the World Health Assembly passed Resolution WHA40.38, calling for 7 April 1988 to be a "a world no-smoking day." In 1988, Resolution WHA42.19 was passed, calling for the celebration of “World No Tobacco Day”, every year on 31 May.
