Abstract:
Today, alcohol marketing is everywhere to encourage heavy drinking, thus causing more powerful effects on thinking about alcohol than previously. Consequently, brief intervention programmes alone no longer can contribute meaningfully to the improvement of population health relating to alcohol. It requires major innovations and paradigm shifts. This paper suggests integrating brief interventions with digital content, emphasising meso-level social processes based on material that people want to share, and seeking synergies with macrolevel population and media.
