Alcohol management in Indigenous north Australia: policies and responses

该项目采用混合方法，旨在与澳大利亚北方三个地区的土著社区建立知识伙伴关系，以加深对如何更有效地应对酗酒问题的理解，确保在各种情况下以与社区相关和有益的方式管理酒精。酒精是澳大利亚土著人社会、法律的和健康问题的一个主要原因。这导致澳大利亚土著人民在政治上大量参与对酒精的管制。酒精管理计划最近被用作减少酒精相关危害的核心手段，特别是在偏远地区。该项目的案例研究结果可能会在社区一级提供重大利益，使社区团体能够有效地参与和应对与酒精有关的危害。

Using mixed methods, this project aims to develop knowledge partnerships with Indigenous communities in three regions across northern Australia to build on understandings of how to respond to alcohol misuse more effectively, ensuring that alcohol is managed in ways that are relevant and useful to communities in a wide range of contexts. Alcohol is a major cause of social, legal and health concerns for Indigenous Australians. This has led to significant political involvement in the regulation of alcohol in communities where Australian Indigenous people live. Alcohol management plans have most recently been used as a central device for reducing alcohol-related harms, particularly in remote areas. The project case study results may provide significant benefit at the community level, empowering community groups to effectively engage in and respond to alcohol-related harms.
