AER Project - Alcohol Peer Reviews
AER is partner to the Building Capacity project, which is co-financed under the European Public Health Programme. The project was launched in May 2007.
Project Outline
The AER Alcohol Peer Reviews project focuses on:
- Establishing a network of regions focused on regional alcohol policy and prevention initiatives. The intention could be to exchange experiences and to discover the most effective interventions and strategies.
- A practical overview and inventory of descriptions of experiences and best practices at the regional level.
- Monitoring and evaluation models that are effective and practical (for example not too expensive) to implement at the regional level.
Further information on this AER initiative is contained in the following document or from the Committee 2 Secretariat.
