    ECToHs are organised every three years under the auspices of the Association of European Cancer League (ECL). These Conferences are recognised internationally as the main European forum for tobacco control advocates.  Each ECToH is attended by the most important policy makers, scientists, researchers, advocacy officers, health professionals as well as all others strongly committed in the fight against tobacco.
    The 9th ECToH Madrid 2023 is being hosted by the Spanish Association Against Cancer and the Spanish Committee on Tobacco Prevention. This year our goal is to generate a social movement involving the different actors that play a key role in tobacco control in order to achieve our primary goal set by the European Union (EU) which is:  a ‘Tobacco-Free Generation’ in Europe where less than 5% of the population uses tobacco by 2040. Our hope is to generate a space where all the European initiatives on tobacco control could join efforts and work together towards the eradication of the tobacco epidemic. The 9th ECToH Madrid 2023 will mainly focus on youth and the most vulnerable groups with a special emphasis in the promotion of health equity in tobacco prevention and control.
