Connie the Clever Cockie presents: Research Roundup – Looking Back on 2024

To round off the year, I wanted to share some research highlights from 2024. A consistent message this year has been about the success of community health programs developed by those who know community best – its members. Working with community members that know and trust you is vital for the TIS program, and something we know you already do. This evidence confirms the value of this as best practice for TIS.

In this Research Roundup, we reflect on:

  • Adapting Quit Campaigns for Different Populations
  • Using Systems Thinking
  • Youth Vaping and Smoking
  • Vaping Regulations
  • TIS Take-aways from Conference Conversations
  • National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Survey in Brief.

Key Messages for 2024:

  • It is never too early to educate youth about the benefits of not smoking or vaping
  • Changing complex behaviours like smoking, needs a coordinated systems effort
  • Collaborative efforts that harness power of community and culture are effective in the fight to eliminate nicotine addiction.
