Main objective:
To implement the “Servicio Comunitario” pilot programme for the prevention of alcohol and other drug-related harm.
Summary:
This edition of the ‘Servicio Comunitario’ programme focused on its implementation. In the previous phase of the programme, “Application”, we designed the evaluation methodology, selected the city of intervention and mobilised the community involved in harm prevention. In this edition of the programme, we are starting with the collection of health and policing indicators, the implementation of surveys among nightlife users and the organisation of meetings with the grassroots movements of the intervention area, the local police, the city’s health and consumption department, the city’s drug plan and representatives of the city’s nightlife.
This phase of the programme allowed us to have a qualitative and quantitative baseline of the intervention area. We collected information from the comparison area (city of Zaragoza, Casco Antiguo area) and established the necessary synergies with the technical staff of the Government of Aragon. The work allowed us to obtain an analysis of the situation of both cities in terms of harm related to alcohol and other drugs in the context of nightlife.
