Sustainable Smokefree Sejahtera Campus Community 3.0
One of the evidence-based strategies is to expand and enforce smoke free areas. IIUM, being a gazette smoke free area under the Control of Tobacco Product Regulations, is seriously looking into this issue as it touches many components of the Sustainable Development Goals, and more importantly, the Maqasid al-Syariah.
Hence, having the Smoke Free Campus Flagship under the Kulliyyah of Pharmacy is indeed a step in the right decision. This provides the impetus towards increasing awareness regarding not only dangers of tobacco use, including cigarettes, shisha, and electronic cigarettes, but also offers help in the form of smoking cessation service.

Public Health England once issued a statement that vaping or electronic cigarettes are 95% safer than smoking. Why not follow this advice?
Vape does not contain tobacco, in fact, the contents consist of edible ingredients. What is the danger?
Vape has led hardcore smokers to turn to vape. Should vape sales need to be increased?
In this video, we will dissect the views on the benefits of vaping. Is it a myth or a fact?
