Abstract |
The harmful use of alcohol creates a significant disease burden and in many countries causes public health problems leading to a substantial health, social and economic burden. Reducing the harmful use of alcohol is becoming a priority on the national, regional and global levels; it can be done by implementing strategies of proven effectiveness. This report presents the latest data from the WHO European Region on alcohol consumption and harm and the responses made to them in countries. It summarizes the situation in the Region as a whole and gives profiles of its 53 countries, presenting consolidated tables and graphs with data on some of the key indicators from the 2009 survey on alcohol and health. In addition, the report describes the WHO instruments and activities that are available to support countries in building on the gains they have already made in this area. Alkoholmissbrauch ist für eine erhebliche Krankheitslast verantwortlich und stellt in vielen Ländern das Gesundheitswesen vor Probleme, die eine beträchtliche Belastung für Mensch, Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft darstellen. Die Bekämpfung des Alkoholmissbrauchs wird zu einer Priorität auf nationaler, regionaler und globaler Ebene und kann durch Umsetzung von nachweislich wirksamen Strategien erfolgen. In diesem Bericht werden die neuesten Daten aus der Europäischen Region der WHO über Alkoholkonsum und dadurch bedingte Schäden sowie die in den Ländern ergriffenen Gegenmaßnahmen präsentiert. Neben einer Zusammenfassung der Situation in der Region insgesamt werden auch Profile der 53 Mitgliedstaaten erstellt; dies geschieht mittels konsolidierter Tabellen und Grafiken mit Daten zu einigen der wichtigsten Indikatoren aus der Studie von 2009 über Alkohol und Gesundheit. Darüber hinaus werden in dem Bericht die Instrumente und Aktionen geschildert, mit denen die WHO die Länder dabei unterstützen kann, an den auf diesem Gebiet bereits erzielten Erfolgen anzuknüpfen. L’usage nocif de l’alcool est à l’origine d’une importante charge de morbidité. Dans beaucoup de pays, il cause des problèmes de santé publique venant grever le fardeau sanitaire, social et économique. Réduire l’usage nocif de l’alcool devient une priorité aux niveaux national, régional et mondial. À cette fin, des stratégies à efficacité avérée peuvent être adoptées. Ce rapport compile les dernières données de la Région européenne de l’OMS en ce qui concerne la consommation d’alcool et ses effets nocifs, ainsi que les mesures de lutte prises dans les pays. Il résume la situation régionale dans son ensemble et présente le profil de ses 53 États membres, à l’aide de tableaux et de graphiques récapitulatifs qui illustrent les données relatives à plusieurs indicateurs essentiels provenant de l’étude menée en 2009 sur l’alcool et la santé. En outre, le rapport décrit les instruments et activités de l’OMS qui sont disponibles pour aider les pays à consolider les gains déjà réalisés dans ce domaine. Во многих странах вредное употребление алкоголя связано со значительным бременем болезней, приводя к негативным медицинским, социальным и экономическим последствиям. Поэтому сокращение вредного употребления алкоголя становится одной из приоритетных задач на национальном, региональном и глобальном уровнях. Эта цель может быть достигнута путем реализации стратегий, эффективность которых уже доказана. В настоящем докладе представлены последние данные по Европейскому региону о потреблении алкоголя и наносимом им вреде, а также об ответных действиях на уровне стран. В нем дается краткое описание ситуации в Регионе в целом, и приведены профили всех 53 государств – членов Региона, в том числе в виде сводных таблиц и графиков с данными по ряду ключевых показателей, взятыми из проведенного в 2009 г. обследования по вопросам алкоголя и здоровья. Кроме того, в докладе дается описание документов и мероприятий ВОЗ, которые могут оказать поддержку странам в развитии тех успехов, которых они уже добились в этой области. |

Abstract |
Investing in prevention and improved control of noncommunicable diseases (NCD) will reduce premature death and preventable morbidity and disability, and improve the quality of life and well-being of people and societies. No less than 86% of deaths and 77% of the disease burden in the WHO European Region are caused by this broad group of disorders, which show an epidemiological distribution with great inequalities reflecting a social gradient, while they are linked by common risk factors, underlying determinants and opportunities for intervention. This document contains an action plan for implementation of the European Strategy for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases. Taking account of Members States’ existing commitments, it focuses on priority action areas and interventions for the next five years (2012–2016) within a comprehensive and integrated framework. It has been developed through a consultative process, guided by the Standing Committee of the Regional Committee, and including meetings of NCD focal points and of the European Health Policy Forum for High-Level Government Officials. Its formulation has taken place against a backdrop of development of the new European health policy (Health 2020) and the Public Health Framework for Action, as well as the First Global Ministerial Conference on Healthy Lifestyles and Noncommunicable Disease Control (Moscow, April 2011) and the United Nations high-level Meeting on Noncommunicable Diseases (New York, September 2011) and takes account of these processes. |

Abstract |
alcohol is one of the world’s top three priority areas in public health. Even though only half the global population drinks alcohol, it is the world’s third leading cause of ill health and premature death, after low birth weight and unsafe sex, and greater than tobacco. In Europe, alcohol is also the third leading risk factor for disease and mortality after tobacco and high blood pressure. This report presents the latest literature overview of effective alcohol policies, and includes data from the European Union, Norway and Switzerland in the areas of alcohol consumption, harm and policy approaches. The data presented were collected from a survey in 2011. |

Abstract |
The European action plan to reduce the harmful use of alcohol 2012-2020 was endorsed by all 53 Member States of the WHO European Region in September 2011. The action plan includes a range of evidence-based policy options to reduce the harmful use of alcohol. Furthermore, this document includes the Regional Committee resolution EUR/RC61/R4, a list of indicators, with definitions, linked to the indicators used in the European Information System on alcohol and Health and a checklist or set of questions for Member States. The action plan is closely linked to the 10 action areas from the global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol adopted at the World Health Assembly in May 2010. The primary audience for the action plan is the national authorities in the WHO European Region responsible for alcohol policy, mainly the ministry of health and other ministries including finance, education, social welfare, transportation, criminal justice, as well as nongovernmental organizations, researchers, civil society, the private sector, and international partners. |

Abstract |
There is a substantial evidence base on the effectiveness of different policies in reducing the harm done by alcohol. Policies that regulate the economic and physical availability of alcohol are effective in reducing alcohol-related harm. Enforced legislative measures to reduce drinking and driving and interventions individually directed to drinkers already at risk are also effective. The evidence shows that information and education programmes do not reduce alcohol-related harm; nevertheless, they have a role in providing information, reframing alcohol-related problems and increasing attention to alcohol on the political and public agendas. In all parts of the European Union, population-based interventions represent a highly cost– effective use of resources to reduce alcohol-related harm. Brief interventions for individual high-risk drinkers are also cost–effective, but are harder to scale up because of their associated training and manpower needs. |
