In this part of the presentation

Focus on survey information collected by Member
States and provided to EMCDDA
Potentialities of cooperation with other partners
(e.g. DG Sante) on information collection
![Page 9: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Drug situation
Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) Supply and market information (key indicators under preparation)
New drugs and trends

Supply reduction activities
Best practice
Policies, laws and economic issues

“Key Epidemiological” Indicators
Prevalence and patters of drug use* in the
general population (GPS)
Prevalence and patters of Problem Drug Use (PDU)/High Risk Drug Use
(HRDU)
Treatment Demand due to drug problems (TDI)
Drug-related Deaths (DRD)
Drug-related Infectious Diseases (DRID)
(*) in fact in most cases “substance use” -at national level-

Prevalence and patterns of drug use among the
general population
This information is obtained through
national representative probabilistic surveys of the
general population (adults and school children)

“European Model Questionnaire” (EMQ)
13
Set of items on modular form to:
- Create a specific questionnaire
- Inclusion in an existing questionnaires
Modules on:
- socio-demographics
- illicit drugs prevalence and patterns of use
- alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use)
- risk perception and policy opinions
![Page 14: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Current module on alcohol
14
- Limited set of questions on prevalence and patterns (frequencies and binge drinking)
- Countries are actually collecting alcohol information (often more detailed than the EMQ)
- But EMCDDA has collated only very limited information (LTP, LYP, LMP by gender and age)
- Not proactive in national harmonization
![Page 15: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
EMCDDA tools for Key Indicators
15
- Annual expert meetings (methodology and results)
- Regular data collection at national level
- Annual collation of information by EMCDDA
through national Focal Points (REITOX)

Perspectives
19
- Possible adoption of a new module on alcohol
use based in RARHA questionnaire
- More proactive role of EMCDDA in
implementation of this module in national surveys
- More proactive role in collation of the information
at EU level (resources? mandate?)
![Page 20: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2.- ESPAD project
European School survey Project on
Alcohol and other Drugs
![Page 21: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
- About 40 European countries and more than
110000 students in 2011
- It is maintained by a network of researchers in
increasing cooperation with EMCDDA (role in
coordination since 2015)
- EMCDDA will support the next wave of data
collection… but additional funding will be
needed for long term continuity
![Page 22: EMCDDA Present and potential perspectives for information ... · Demand - Epidemiology (“key indicators” established) ... -alcohol use, tobacco, medicines - (polydrug use) - risk](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071017/5fd1307c1f4c7a71172810ce/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why school surveys?
- Cost effective
- Relatively easy to conduct
- Reach a large number of students in one setting
- Relatively easy to standardise
- Sampling relatively easy
- High response rate among students
- High validity, i.e. more honest answers than in other surveys

Conclusions
34
- EMCDDA has a solid structure for data collection and reporting in field of drugs.
- With necessary arrangements it could contribute to collect alcohol data existing in national sources already reporting to EMCDDA
- ESPAD is an European project on alcohol and other drugs in adolescents. EMCDDA is increasingly contributing to coordinate the project.
- Though the primary interest of EMCDDA is drugs, ESPAD collects plenty of alcohol information
