ACHIEVING THE VISION
SMOKEFREE/AUAHI KORE AOTEAROA NZ 2025
“ Lets have doubled the quit rate, even more for Maori and Pacific” Ben Youdan, ASH NZ 2012
To get smoking rates under 5% for all New Zealanders we need:
- Nearly half a million fewer smokers
- 1 in 4 need to be Maori (125,000)
- 1 in 10 need to be Pasifika (35,000)
