Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) is a nonprofit organization focused on tobacco-control advocacy and policy development. It conducts training for advocates worldwide to view cigarette production, marketing, and sale as a human rights violation and to use existing human rights frameworks to push governments toward stronger tobacco regulations. Through Project Sunset, ASH provides technical assistance to local U.S. communities seeking to phase out cigarette sales, with Beverly Hills, California cited as an example. The organization also envisions pursuing legal accountability for tobacco companies and executives when cigarette sales are framed as a human rights violation. ASH is based in Washington, District of Columbia, and operates as a smaller nonprofit within the wellness and fitness services space. Its trainings and technical assistance are described as essential but costly to sustain, and recent activities include a 2026 partnership with Smokefree Sheffield to educate youth about vaping.
