Global Youth Tobacco Survey Gyts Timor Leste 2019

The Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) was developed by the Tobacco-Free Initiative (TFI) of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Office on Smoking and Health of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Atlanta, in collaboration with a number of countries representing the six WHO regions to generate comprehensive tobacco prevention and control information on young people. It enables countries to systematically monitor tobacco use among the youth and track key tobacco control indicators using globally standardized tools. The GYTS is a nationally representative school-based survey of students aged 13-15 years. This report contains results of the GYTS in Timor-Leste.
