| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par SAPHIR pR0xqBro. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. This public health analysis examines the supporting documentation for the formulation and implementation of the European Commission's 2006 Communication on a strategy to reduce alcohol-based harm (the Communication) and the framework for alcohol policy in the WHO European Region (the framework), in order to provide guidance for the development of country-based action plans on alcohol. This report also examines relevant findings from projects co-financed by the Commission. The analysed materials call for strong, coordinated action across all relevant policy domains to reduce alcohol-related harm, supported by national action plans and backed by the European Union (EU). The Communication, an action-oriented instrument, focuses on mapping present actions and sharing experiences, whereas the framework, a process-oriented instrument, calls for national infrastructure to implement effective action. In implementing the Communication, the Commission has focused on education, young people's drinking and industry self-regulation. Actions in other EU policy domains have not yet contributed to reducing the health and economic burden of alcohol use. National action plans should complement implementation of the Communication and the framework by emphasizing actions that regulate alcohol price, availability and marketing, which will have an immediate impact on reducing alcohol's burden.
