WEBINAR: What’s Next for Nicotine Regulation in Aotearoa NZ

HCA’s third webinar in the Investing in Health series exploring the future of nicotine regulation in Aotearoa NZ.

Aotearoa once led the world on smokefree policy. Today, questions about vaping, youth nicotine use, industry influence and the future of tobacco regulation are increasingly contested.

This webinar brings together leading public health experts from Aotearoa and Australia to examine where nicotine policy goes next — and what an effective regulatory framework should look like in a rapidly changing environment.

This webinar will explore:

• what effective nicotine regulation looks like now
• lessons from Aotearoa and Australia
• the balance between smoking cessation and youth protection
• the role of industry and commercial influence
• and the policy settings needed to reduce long-term harm.

The session will be a moderated, question-led discussion followed by audience Q&A.
