Reitox national academy on evidence-based prevention opens today in Zagreb

The Croatian national focal point and the European Union Drugs Agency (EUDA) are organising today the latest Reitox Academy on evidence-based prevention. The academy will cover the principles of science-based prevention, feature examples of quality prevention programmes across Europe and discuss models for improving national prevention interventions.

Experts from different countries will present examples of good practice in prevention interventions in diverse settings, including: school (Estonia, Spain, Brazil); family (Estonia) and community (Croatia, Germany) (¹).

The event will round off with a session on lessons learned in applying evidence-based prevention programmes and implementing quality standards in the EU. An expert from Bosnia and Herzegovina will share experience from a non-EU country in a final panel discussion.
