RAYPRO, a Resource on Alcohol and Youth Projects


The on-line database RAYPRO, a Resource on Alcohol and Youth Projects, enables to share information on projects and activities to reduce alcohol-related harm among children and young people, and promotes good practice based on sound evaluation of effectiveness.

Projects and activities are grouped according to themes:

  • Curbing under-age drinking
  • Curbing drink-driving by young people
  • Educating and empowering young people on alcohol issues
  • Promoting responsible selling and serving of alcohol to young people
  • Protecting young people from the consequences of alcohol abuse by others.

The age range extends from children – for example reducing harm from alcohol use disorders in the family - to young adults, as late teenage and early adulthood affect drinking habits for life.
