Hi, I am Laura Graen.

I am the founder of TIME – for a nicotine-free future, and Germany’s leading expert on the tobacco lobby.

My strengths are investigative research, strategic advocacy and communication adjusted to a variety of audiences.

I have a background in cultural anthropology. Perhaps that is the reason why I am passionate about creating collaborative partnerships and building bridges between different areas. I believe that this is essential to achieve sustainable and holistic change.

If you’re the industry: Don’t bother to ask. I never work for tobacco, alcohol, fossil fuels or arms’ industries. This applies to organisations that are related to these industries or funded by them as well.
