The role of deans in implementing smoke-free campus policies: the case of medical schools in France
SFC are poorly developed in medical schools in France, mostly because medical school deans prioritize other issues over smoking prevention and are under-aware of the benefits of SFC policy. However, they hold a net-positive opinion on SFC policy and express a willingness to implement it. We provide a set of practical strategies to help remove the main barriers to SFC implementation.
