To implement the Community Service Pilot Programme for the Prevention of Alcohol and Other Drug Harm.
The Community Service Pilot Programme for the Prevention of Alcohol and Other Drug Harm represents the launch of an innovative intervention model combining research and action to address substance-related harm. This multi-component programme focuses on three key areas: community engagement, law enforcement, and the promotion of Responsible Beverage Service (RBS).
The pilot began with the selection of a city and specific intervention area, based on criteria designed to maximise the programme’s impact. Valencia was chosen as the experimental city, with the Ruzafa neighbourhood—a vibrant nightlife hub—serving as the intervention area. A participatory diagnosis was conducted in collaboration with grassroots organisations, local government, and police units to establish a comprehensive understanding of the area’s dynamics and needs.
Evaluation played a central role in the programme. A validated survey was developed for nightlife patrons, a group interview was conducted with municipal police, and key aspects for intervention were identified. The methodology was designed to include both an experimental city for implementing the programme and a comparison city to assess its impact. The pilot aimed to validate a robust methodology that could be scaled and adapted to other contexts.
