ThaiHealth was one of the key solutions in PMAC2024
“In Thailand, there is a law requiring the tobacco and alcohol industry to pay additional 2% excise to the Healthpromotion fund or Thaihealth who is using and managing this fund to empower communities, to strengthen relevantsystems and to enhance knowledge generation. Currently ThaiHealth supports more than 20,000 projects and innovations across the country to counteract the force from all commercial determinants of health not only tobacco and alcohol. There have been a lot of movements leading toboth policy change and sustainable development at the local level.”
