WHY ?
When 42 million vapers across the world stand up together to speak about our journeys towards better health and demand our right to switch to less harmful alternatives, we will be hard to ignore. In India, a committee of the most senior and well-respected people in the vaping community is organising this year’s programme.
WHAT ?
This year’s #WorldVapeDay – India will comprise four activities:
1. A Twitter campaign which ties in with global efforts.
2. A livestream where vapers talk about their stories.
3. A social media campaign to sensitise Indian public to THR.
4. Emails to MP/MLAs seeking our right to make safer choices.
