Idea and aims
The idea of the conference is to bring together 150+ youth workers/leaders from across Europe and beyond to work together on the topic of alcohol, alcohol prevention and advocacy among youth.
The main conference aims are:
• To raise interest among young people and youth organisations about prevention of alcohol related harm and alcohol policy;
• To empower the participants with the necessary skills and capacities in order to effectively work on the field of alcohol;
• To empower the participants with the necessary tools to engage in advocating for more comprehensive alcohol policy on regional, national and international level;
• To provide the necessary tools and training for participants to be able to conduct projects to reduce the alcohol related harm on youth;
• To give participants the opportunity to exchange their expertise and good practices with their peers.
The conference is aimed at youth from across Europe who are interested in the topic of alcohol or are already actively working in the field. Some places are reserved also for participants from outside Europe.
Programme
The conference will have a combination of workshops, plenaries and social programme.
The participants will be able to choose to participate in one of the workshops in the following areas:
• Development of alcohol related projects (beginner/advanced), aimed at those who would like to start working in the field of alcohol and those who would like to improve their already existing projects;
• Youth research (intermediate/advanced), aimed at those willing to work on scientific research regarding alcohol and youth;
• Alcohol policy, advocacy and lobbying (intermediate/advanced), aimed at those willing to influence local, national and international authorities on alcohol policy and advocacy.
