4th European Alcohol Policy conference. 16 – 18 June 2010, Brussels

This conference will be the fourth in a series of alcohol policy conferences (the first was in Warsaw in June 2004, the second in Helsinki in November 2006, the third in Barcelona in April 2008).
The scope and purpose of the conference is to promote and disseminate knowledge about current thinking on alcohol and alcohol policy matters, to build capacity and promote networking and coalition building between and within the European countries, and to provide the opportunity of profiling the ECs communication on alcohol, as well as relevant EC co-financed projects.
In addition, in May 2010 the WHA will have voted on the adoption of the Global Alcohol Strategy. Europe has a strong position and responsibility, being the world's leader on alcohol consumption and an important exporter of alcoholic beverages.
