Advancing Tobacco Taxation in Southeast Asia (ATT-SEA) is a project implemented by the Ateneo School of Government (ASoG) with the financial support from Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and Cancer Research UK (CRUK).
About the Project
ATT-SEA aims to improve tobacco tax implementation and tobacco control interventions in the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries by addressing the current knowledge gaps and strengthening research on tobacco tax evasion and illicit tobacco trade in the region. The research studies examine the extent, determinants, impact, and policy measures to combat illicit tobacco.
The project also promotes policy dialogues and engagement between the tobacco control community and public policy makers to advance evidence-based policy recommendations on tobacco tax governance.
