Appendix IX: Global Youth Tobacco survey data
Appendix IX provides information on tobacco use among youth population derived from the Global Youth Tobacco Survey implemented between 1999 and 2008. Only countries participating in the Global Youth Tobacco Survey are listed in these tables.

Definitions are as follows:
■■Currently use any tobacco product: consumed any smokeless or smoked tobacco product at least once during the last 30 days prior to the survey.
■■Currently smoke cigarettes: smoked at least one cigarette during the last 30 days prior to the survey.
■■ Exposed to smoke: during the last seven days prior to the survey, people smoked at least once in the presence of the interviewee.
