We are so proud of Australia.

Excerpt from our impassioned statement at a #CND64 event against the death penalty:

[Helen Clark @HelenClarkNZ]

Testing of pills/drugs at music festivals in #NZ is to become permanent after positive evaluation of experience last summer. 68% of surveyed festival-goers who used drug-testing services changed their behaviour. This service saves lives. @globalcdp @nzdrug https://t.co/gwQHfojxqb

[Caitlin Hughes @DrCaitlinHughes]

Researchers at the University of Sydney find impairment after taking moderate to high doses of #cannabis lasts only three to 10 hours

This provide further evidence for reform of zero tolerance roadside drug testing #laws

Trauma informed approaches, empathy, a less stimulating environment, more peer workers, a trusted person, separate waiting areas, referring to support plans...some suggestions from people with a #livedexperience of #mentalhealth treatment in ERs. @acemonline #NowWhereElsetoGo

Are you trying to reduce the amount you drink?
We're looking for people to test a new “brain-training” app that aims to help people reduce their #alcohol cravings and consumption. https://t.co/S04DxZAtdw https://t.co/7mMi8xE6iN

[FARE @FAREAustralia]

Early exposure to small amounts of #alcohol can actually increase the risk of binge drinking in later life, Australian researchers have warned.

[VicHealth @VicHealth]

New @FAREAustralia research with data collected before coronavirus lockdowns showed the majority (75%) of Victorians most frequently drink at either their own or friends’ homes.

This is INCREDIBLE!🎉
We did it - Australia & NZ will soon have a mandatory, visible & effective health warning on alcohol products!
It is amazing to see what we can achieve together.🙌
The actions each of you took made all the difference.👏
THANK YOU!

Today we launch a new campaign to raise awareness of how little habits can turn into big problems. Our aim is to help Australians recognise their new, unwanted habits and seek help to reduce their risky drinking. Help us spread the message: https://t.co/brmBPAK2gQ #breakthehabit
