Altria Shareholders Meeting

Over 100 youth advocates from 13 different U.S. states and Indonesia, including numerous GYAT members, organized advocacy events around the Altria meeting, including a one-day training, a rally outside of the meeting, statements inside the meeting, and a rally outside the company’s headquarters in New York City. They exposed how the company continues to target youth in the U.S. and around the world and echoed a global call to “quarantine” the company to prevent it from further poisoning another generation. Voice of America Indonesia (television, radio, web) covered the events extensively.
