Next week we will attend to Lisbon Addictions Conference, for the third time in a row. The multidisciplinary conference is a forum for networking across the addictions, mainly focusing on addictive behaviours and dependencies.
This year, we participate in the conference with a poster presentation and three workshops. Busy, insightful days will be ahead!
We are a member of the Nobody Left Outside initiative. Alongside its other members, this past year, we have worked on developing a Joint Statement as well as a Service Design Checklist. Our Joint Statement will have its round of presentations on several occasions to come while we will be presenting the Checklist during the conference.
The Service Design Checklist has been developed to help service providers and policymakers design and deliver services that are accessible to underserved, marginalised people, and for community advocacy use.
Come by our stand for more information and juicy discussions.
The workshops we will collaboratively be leading will focus on harm reduction, civil society organisations, and capacity building. They will strategically guide the participants through developing strategies, tools, and individually-tailored support and education.
Below is the list of our workshops, you do not want to miss:
