DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):Tobacco use is one of the greatest causes of preventable death and disease in human history. Over the next two decades, deaths due to tobacco will soar to 4.2 million annually in Asian countries, nearly twice that of developed regions. India and Indonesia are especially hard hit by the tobacco epidemic and cigarette consumption is actually increasing in both countries. Tobacco cessation capacity is in its infancy in India and virtually nonexistent in Indonesia. Cessation represents the only realistic means of significantly reducing the toll of death and disease from tobacco in the first part of this century. The current project will emphasize capacity building in both of these countries and will focus on creating an infrastructure to promote cessation among tobacco users. We have brought together an outstanding team of international experts in a cross-disciplinary effort to do needed formative research, cessation trials, and training. Key objectives of the project include: developing knowledge capacity through intensive training in state-of-the-art research in tobacco cessation for collaborating researchers, fostering experiential capacity through formative research and expanding educational system capacity. A major objective will be widespread dissemination of study findings both during and following the conclusion of the project.

烟草使用是人类历史上可预防的死亡和疾病的最大原因之一。在今后20年中，亚洲国家每年因烟草死亡的人数将飙升至420万，几乎是发达地区的两倍。印度和印度尼西亚受烟草流行的打击尤其严重，这两个国家的卷烟消费实际上都在增加。戒烟能力在印度处于起步阶段，在印度尼西亚几乎不存在。戒烟是本世纪上半叶大幅度减少烟草造成的死亡和疾病的唯一现实手段。目前的项目将强调这两个国家的能力建设，并将侧重于建立促进烟草使用者戒烟的基础设施。我们汇集了一支优秀的国际专家团队，进行跨学科的努力，进行必要的形成性研究，戒烟试验和培训。该项目的主要目标包括：通过对合作研究人员进行戒烟最新研究方面的强化培训，发展知识能力;通过形成性研究培养经验能力;以及扩大教育系统的能力。一个主要目标是在项目期间和项目结束后广泛传播研究结果。
