Title Preventing overdose deaths in Europe Type Book Whole
Year (down) 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 5
Keywords public policy on AOD; strategy; AOD overdose mortality; opioids in any form; heroin; Europe; European Union
Abstract The heroin epidemics that spread across Europe in the 1980s resulted in increasing numbers of overdose deaths among opioid users. Although the annual number of reported deaths peaked around the turn of the millennium, drug overdose still claimed more than 70 000 in Europe in the subsequent decade. Despite the fact that recent data show some promising signs, with the number of reported overdose deaths falling from around 7 700 to 6 500 between 2009 and 2011, stable or increasing death tolls continue to be reported, for example in Estonia, Sweden and the United Kingdom (Scotland).

Title Mass media campaigns for the prevention of drug use in young people Type Book Whole
Year (down) 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 5
Keywords public policy on AOD; public health; illicit drug; prevention campaign; television; evaluation; adolescent; Europe; European Union
Abstract The use of mass media campaigns as a drug prevention intervention is relatively common, but it is not without controversy. Both policy makers and practitioners have debated the effectiveness of such campaigns in reducing drug use among young people, and there is a possibility that they may be counter-productive. In Europe, more than one-third of the 30 countries affiliated to the EMCDDA report that mass media campaigns on illicit drugs are either not carried out or have been cut back, in some cases because of concerns about their safety. This analysis contributes to the debate by reviewing the available evidence on the efficacy of massmedia campaigns for drug use prevention.

Title Synthetic cannabinoids in Europe Type Book Whole
Year (down) 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 5
Keywords psychoactive substances; cannabis product; cannabinoids; smoking; tobacco in any form; AOD effects and AODR problems; adverse drug effect; AOD product advertising; AOD sales outlet; international area; Europe; European Union
Abstract Synthetic cannabinoids, or more correctly, synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists, mimic the effect of cannabis and are the largest group of compounds monitored at European level by the EU Early warning system on new psychoactive substances (EWS). ’Legal high’ products containing synthetic cannabinoids have probably been sold as herbal smoking mixtures since at least 2006. These products do not necessarily contain tobacco or cannabis but when smoked, produce effects similar to those of cannabis. They have been subject to innovative marketing approaches and are widely available on the Internet and in some shops in urban areas (often called ’head’ or ’smart’ shops).

Title Synthetic drug production in Europe Type Book Whole
Year (down) 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 5
Keywords psychoactive substances; illegal production of drugs; AOD consumption; drug trafficking; amphetamines; MDMA; ecstasy; international area; Europe; European Union
Abstract Europe has a long history of producing and consuming synthetic drugs. The region remains important today for the production of these substances, with manufacture taking place for both domestic consumption and export to other parts of the world. In terms of both production and use, three substances dominate the European market for synthetic drugs: amphetamine (usually the sulphate salt), ecstasy-type drugs, especially methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), and methamphetamine (usually the hydrochloride salt).

Title Trends in heroin use in Europe : what do treatment demand data tell us? Type Book Whole
Year (down) 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 5
Keywords AOD user; AOD consumption; opioids in any form; heroin; treatment and maintenance; epidemiology; survey; statistical data; international area; Europe; European Union
Abstract The current number of problem opioid users in Europe can be estimated atabout 1.4 million, or 0.41 % of the adult population, with heroin being by far the most widely used opioid. Heroin use has developed along different timelines; several western European countries faced increases from the 1970s onward, whereas countries in Central and Eastern Europe saw a development in heroin use in the 1990s and later. Recent analyses of multiple indicators suggest that Europe may be witnessing a longer-term decline in heroin use, although countries show varying patterns and trends.

Abstract Die Prävention will mit verschiedenen Methoden verschiedene Zielgruppen erreichen. Die Ziele der Prävention sind vielfältig und hängen von zahlreichen Faktoren ab. Die folgenden Dokumente bieten eine Übersicht über die Themen der Suchtprävention. Für Interessierte wird auch Literatur zur Vertiefung angegeben. In “Theoretische Grundlagen der Suchtprävention” werden die wichtigsten Theorien, welche die Basis für suchtpräventives Handeln bilden, dargestellt. Hier finden sich Erläuterungen zu Risikofaktoren und Schutzfaktoren sowie zu Entstehungs- und Interventionstheorien. In “Konzepte der Suchtprävention” wird auf zwei wichtige Einteilungen der Suchtprävention eingegangen: – nach Zeitpunkt der Intervention – nach Zielgruppe der Intervention In der Suchtprävention wird die “Verhältnisprävention” von der “Verhaltensprävention” unterschieden. Die Massnahmen der Verhältnisprävention setzen bei der Umwelt an, diejenigen der Verhaltensprävention beim Menschen. Um die Effizienz und Effektivität von Massnahmen zu überprüfen, ist eine “Evaluation” der Massnahmen notwendig.

Abstract La prévention cherche à atteindre des publics cibles différents par des méthodes variées. Les objectifs de la prévention sont multidimensionnels et dépendent de nombreux facteurs. Les documents que nous vous proposons offrent un aperçu des thématiques de la prévention des dépendances. Les personnes qui souhaiteraient approfondir le sujet y trouveront également des références. Les bases théoriques exposent les principales théories sur lesquelles se fonde la prévention des dépendances. Sont abordées les questions de facteurs de risque et de protection, de même que les théories de l’étiologie et de l’intervention. Les concepts de prévention des dépendances présentent deux approches habituellement utilisées centrées sur: – le moment de l’intervention – le groupe cible On distingue classiquement les mesures de prévention structurelle, qui visent à modifier les structures et l’environnement des groupes cibles, des mesures de prévention des dépendances centrée sur la personne qui agissent directement sur les individus. L’évaluation de projets dans le cadre de la prévention est complexe mais indispensable pour mieux estimer leur efficacité.
