2000 - 2005: European Alcohol Action Plan

The EAAP 2000-2005 was endorsed at the forty-ninth session of the Regional Committee for Europe of the WHO, 13-17 September 1999 in Florence. The aim of EAAP for the period 2000-2005 is to prevent and reduce the harm that can be done by alcohol throughout the European Region. The ten strategies set out in the European Charter on Alcohol provide the framework for EAAP during the period 2000-2005. The Action Plan indicates what should be achieved (outcomes) and how that can be achieved (actions). Each Member State will need to consider the nature of the alcohol-related problems it faces and to determine which of the possible actions listed would prove to be most applicable and effective in its own circumstances. One of the outcomes mentioned in the EAAP is that: “By the year 2005, all countries of the European Region should… reduce the harm that can be done by alcohol in the workplace, in particular accidents and violence”.
