Have your say: WHO holds public consultation to reduce alcohol consumption

Countries of the WHO European Region need an effective policy framework to reduce alcohol consumption levels and the associated health harms. WHO is hosting 3 consultations on the draft of the “Framework to strengthen implementation of the WHO European Action Plan to Reduce the Harmful Use of Alcohol (EAPA), 2022–2025”. These consultations are with civil society, Member States and members of the public.

In accordance with the regional plan for implementation of the programme budget for 2022–2023 (EUR/RC71/12) and as requested by Member States, WHO/Europe has now produced a draft Implementation framework to reduce alcohol consumption in the WHO European Region,2022-2025, to be submitted to the WHO Regional Committee for Europe at its 72nd session in September 2022.

A consultation survey on the draft Framework is now open.

Members of the public are invited to submit their comments on the draft via an online survey between 15 March and 25 March 2022. A link to the survey is available through the following webpage.
