The Anti Tobacco Network (ATN) is committed to reducing tobacco use and its harmful effects on our communities. As part of our efforts to support research-driven solutions, we are sharing an opportunity for young adults in Gaborone to participate in a study on smoking behaviors, cessation efforts, and intervention strategies.
