Brief description of organization’s activities:
VOICE- Voluntary Organisation in the interest of Consumer
Education- is a vibrant and proactive voluntary consumer
action group. Its objective is to protect and promote the
interests of the consumers. VOICE networks with more than
250 organisations in more than 150 countries. The Group
aims at not only making the consumer conscious of the malpractices
perpetuated in the market-place, but also creating awareness
in an organized manner to mobilize public opinion in favour
of the consumer in order to overcome the helplessness of
the individual consumer.
It works towards informing the consumer of his/her rights,
and motivating him/ her to demand value for money in a global
competitive market. VOICE has always taken the leadership
with the consumer organisations globally on tobacco related
issues and has made a visible achievement in exposing the
misdeeds of the tobacco industry at the national, regional
and international level.
