Smokefree Class Network

Partners from all over Europe who are engaged in Smokefree Class Competition collaborate in the Smokefree Class Network. The Institute of Therapy and Health Research (IFT-Nord, Kiel Germany) is in charge of the coordination of this network.

In 2009, the SFC-Network was funded by an operating grant of the European Union in the framework of the Health Programme.
