3rd Open Forum on Alcohol and Health. 22 April, Brussels


Within the framework of the European Alcohol and Health Forum a 3rd Open Forum will be held in Brussels (Charlemagne Building of the European Commission) on 22 April 2010 from 10h00 till 17h00.

The Open Forum is an opportunity for an exchange of information and for discussion with a broader range of interested parties, including Member States. It also provides networking possibilities between and among the different stakeholders who wish to contribute to the reduction of alcohol-related harm.

This year's Open Forum provides a particular opportunity to present the European Alcohol and Health Forum's work and actions, and to provide an update of policy developments at EU, Member State and international level. Topics for debate at the Open Forum will be the Social Cost of Alcohol, Information to Consumers and Responsible Selling and Serving. There will be an exhibition with stands with materials relating to the work of the Members of the European Alcohol and Health Forum.

A draft programme can be found here and this will be further updated closer to the Forum.

If you wish to participate you can register on line at www.openforum.alcoholandhealthmeetings.eu
