This project will explore barriers and opportunities to strengthening alcohol policy in the 3 Americas countries. It will consist of 3 workpackages: (1) ~20 Interviews with relevant policy-makers – mainly national - about their interests, understanding, concerns and research needs around alcohol; consideration of relevant political documents. (2) ~20 Interviews with civil society stakeholders about their organisation’s views on alcohol (e.g. cancer, violence charities etc.); consideration of relevant documentation. (3) Mapping of available data relevant to policymaker interests, data quality, usage and gaps, including capacity, that affect the feasibility of robust research relevant to policymaker and civil society needs including modelling/complex systems informed natural experiments.
