Description
This report documents the findings from an evaluation of Smarter About Drugs: A Conversation Pack which was carried out in 2019.
Smarter About Drugs is a secondary school curriculum package collaboratively developed by three organisations: 1) Australia21, a non-profit think-tank founded in 2001 to ‘promote fair, sustainable and inclusive public policy through evidence-based research’; 2) the Australian Lions Drug Awareness Foundation (ALDAF), an organisation founded in 1984 “to promote the prevention of health and social harms related to the misuse of alcohol and other drugs”; and 3) Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP), a national youth-led organisation promoting “evidence-based research, drug policy reform, peer-based education and community advocacy”(Australia21 website 2020).
