INTRODUCTION The project “Prevention of poly-drugs addiction and reduction of drug- related harms programs for young people in recreational settings” financed by the specific programme "Drug prevention and information 2007-2013” - European Commission: Directorate general justice, freedom and security1 pursues two main objectives: the first is to give rise to and pull for an appropriate and robust awareness of the problem of recreational consumption and poly-consumption among young people in Europe, in order to support new policies and intervention strategies in facing this increasing phenomenon; the second is to improve the knowledge base and the exchange of information about the prevention and reduction of drug-related harms programs in recreational environments. The object of analysis the project is focused on are prevention interventions implemented in the recreational and night contexts and actions targeted to so-called recreational consumers. The second phase of the transnational research project is represented by the set up of a case study research plan. The cases which were selected and studied are organizations (Regions, local health authorities, districts, associations, municipalities, other public institutions or private organizations) who promoted and developed prevention interventions implemented in the recreational and night contexts or actions targeted to so-called recreational consumers. The interventions are represented by systematized projects, programmes or targeted services or approaches. The prevention interventions of the projects, programmes or services selected are targeted to discos, disco- pubs or pubs. This report is divided in 3 different sections: the Italian case studies, the Scottish case studies, the Danish case studies. The transnational partnership adopted a common inquiry form for analyzing the project and a common interview guideline for the contextualization of the project in the particular area it was developed. People interviewed for each project are managers with a good position/role in the organization who promoted and 1 http://ec.europa.eu/justice_home/funding/drugs/funding_drugs_en.htm 5 Case study analysis Prevention of poly-drugs addiction and reduction of drug-related harms programs for young people in recreational settings developed the programme, project or targeted service, with a detailed knowledge of the programme, project or targeted service and a detailed knowledge of the phenomenon of recreational consumers, at least in their territory. This case study analysis report is the result of the joint work of the three national teams, for the Italian team: - Laura Tidone, ASL of Bergamo; - Marco Riglietta, ASL of Bergamo; - Luca Biffi, ASL of Bergamo; - Elvira Beato, ASL of Bergamo; - Giovanni Viganò, Synergia; - Giuliano Paterniti, Synergia; - Danilo Bolano, Synergia; - Alessandro Pozzi, Synergia For the Scottish team: - Gerry Humphris, University Court of the University of St. Andrews; - Alex Baldacchino, University of Dundee; - Tahira Akbar, University Court of the University of St. Andrews; - Dianne Earley, NHS Fife; For the Danish team: - Børge Sommer, National Board of Health; - Erik Damberg, National Board of Health; - Lotte Sønderby, National Board of Health. Given the joint work of the three national teams it has to be highlighted that the Italian analysis was made by Giovanni Viganò and Giuliano Paterniti, the Scottish case studies analysis was made by Tahira Akbar, the Danish analysis was written by Lotte Sønderby. A special thanks to Marina Matucci, Fabio Squeo, Carla Monica Dodesini of Lombardy Region (Italy) and Zsolt Demetrovics of Eotvos Lorand University (Hungary) for their valuable contribution to the project as associate partners. 6 Case study analysis Prevention of poly-drugs addiction and reduction of drug-related harms programs for young people in recreational settings 1. THE ITALIAN CASE STUDIES Here below are presented the 8 Italian case studies. Every case study analysis is structured in a first introductory part which describes the general context the studied project is inserted in, the second part is the case study analysis itself with a common analysis grid that analyses the relevant dimensions the project is constituted of and the third part where the documentations and the selected materials collected for each case are briefly listed and codified (go to the final Appendix at the end of the case study report in order to look all the listed documentation over). 1.1. CASE STUDY 01: THE BERSAGLI MOBILI PROJECT Code of the project: ITA01 Name of the project: Bersagli Mobili Promoter organization: Associazione Il Pioppo ONLUS Country: Italy Area of intervention: City of Naples 1.1.1. General context As in other cities also in Naples clubbing and consumption of alcohol and of other psychotropic drugs are strongly connected. Maybe a prerogative of Naples is a greater spread of cocaine sold at lower prices than in other cities. In the City of Naples there’s a huge number of discos, while in the hinterland of the city there are some big clubs capable to attract thousands of users. Also Centri Sociali (community centres) organize a calendar of "alternative" events and have asked the Department of Addictive Behaviours of ASL Napoli 1 to collaborate in setting up prevention and risk reduction interventions. From September 2008 to June 2009 20 participating observations were carried out in different nightlife events, 7 of these in “commercial” large and medium-sized clubs and 13 in "alternative" contexts self-organized by Centri Sociali in the City of Naples. 7 Case study analysis Prevention of poly-drugs addiction and reduction of drug-related harms programs for young people in recreational settings The substances most commonly used are: alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, MDMA (or similar), ketamine, opiates.

    VI ARBETAR MED UNGA I NORDEN INSTITUTIONER, MYNDIGHETER OCH ORGANISATIONER MED FOKUS PÅ PSYKISK HÄLSA, ARBETE OCH STUDIER 1 INLEDNING/INTRODUCTION Den här broschyren är en del av projektet ”Unga in i Norden - Denna översikt av de viktigaste departementen, myndigheterna, forsknings- psykisk hälsa, arbetet, utbildning”. Läs mer om projektet här: miljöerna och civilsamhällesorganisationerna ska underlätta det nordiska nordicwelfare.org/unga-in-i-norden samarbetet kring alla unga, och särskilt de unga som riskerar att hamna i sårbara situationer. I Norden har vi många gemensamma utmaningar, en av dessa är att alla barn och unga ska ha goda levnadsvillkor. Vi vet också att särskilda satsningar och investeringar krävs för en heterogen grupp unga som riskerar utanförskap på grund av till exempel psykisk ohälsa, avhopp från studier och långvarig arbets- löshet. Vi kan lära oss mycket av varandras olika lösningar och insatser. Ta kontakt och låt er inspireras! This is an overview of the most important ministries, government agencies, research and civil society organisations whose activities involve facilitating Nordic cooperation regarding young people, and particularly those at risk of ending up in vulnerable situations. The Nordic countries have many common challenges, one of which is that all children and young people must have good living conditions. However we know that special initiatives and investments are required for a heterogeneous group of young people at risk of exclusion because of, for example poor mental health, drop-out from education
