This project aims to provide critical insight into recent trends in alcohol consumption and related harm in Australia. Many indicators of harm from alcohol have increased dramatically in the past decade, while drinking behaviours appear largely unchanged. This project aims to investigate two potential explanations for these trends: that apparent increases in rates of alcohol-related harm are driven by operational or administrative practices rather than by increases in actual harm; and that stable per-capita consumption data obscures divergent drinking behaviours, with increases among heavy drinkers driving increasing harm rates. The project aims to inform alcohol policy debates, which rely on robust trend data.

该项目旨在为澳大利亚酒精消费和相关危害的最新趋势提供重要见解。在过去十年中，酒精危害的许多指标急剧增加，而饮酒行为似乎基本没有变化。该项目旨在调查对这些趋势的两种可能的解释：与酒精有关的伤害率的明显增加是由操作或行政做法驱动的，而不是由实际伤害的增加驱动的；稳定的人均消费数据掩盖了不同的饮酒行为，酗酒者的增加导致了伤害率的上升。该项目旨在为酒精政策辩论提供信息，这些辩论依赖于可靠的趋势数据。
