|---|---|
| Overall ranking | 2 |
| JLA question ID | 0044/2 |
| Explanatory note (including examples of original survey submissions) | A common concern is how best to inform people of the risks associated with alcohol consumption. "How can you educate people about the dangers of alcohol without appearing to preach?". "How are health professionals trying to make people aware of the addictive nature of regular consumption of alcohol?" The risk to young people is a particular concern "Does early education of risks associated with alcohol reduce alcohol problems developing in young people?". The use of information technology to educate people is a recurring theme "Exploring YouTube / interactive educational apps for delivering health education in different settings for the prevention of ARLD." |
