RésuméThe consumption of tobacco in Togo has significant economic and health implications, with a particular impact on low and middle-income households in rural areas. The study “Effet d'éviction de la consommation du tabac sur les dépenses de ménage au Togo” reveals that tobacco expenditure displaces essential household spending on housing, cooking energy, hygiene, education, and entertainment. The study recommends targeting anti-smoking initiatives towards low- and middle-income rural households, implementing a mixed taxation system for tobacco products, strengthening measures against illicit tobacco trade, and improving the availability of recent, detailed statistics on tobacco and its derivative products for informed policy decisions.
