The International Confederation of Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Research Associations (ICARA) invites you to join our 2025 Annual General Meeting. We focus on (re)prioritising prevention in policy and practice regarding alcohol, tobacco and other substance use. Two experts will lead the discussion on core governance challenges and opportunities for achieving coordinated action in the development and implementation of comprehensive prevention programmes, from a Global North and South perspective.
