Abstract
Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) involves supporting implementation of the treaty at both the country and global level. However, there is a growing funding gap for support of strategies for financing treaty implementation. Organizations like Corporate Accountability International have enumerated some tobacco industry litigation tactics but there is currently no information on the total costs of countering these tactics. Additional strategies could comprise instigating a global fund, as well as calling on developed parties to include support to FCTC implementation as an eligible area of bilateral assistance programmes.
