Abstract

The findings of this assessment of tobacco control policies in Mongolia reveal a need for a national intersectoral tobacco control committee to provide leadership for comprehensive tobacco control, for the greater involvement of local authorities in tobacco control and law enforcement, and for more scientific evidence to effectively counter the industry’s misleading messages, including an audit of tobacco industry’s spending on advertisements.
