. limiting excessive consumption, and defining
targets, e.g. male students involved in traditional and
folklore activities in which hazardous alcohol intake
peaks. A second step would be to define interventions,
e.g. social-norm interventions that could correct gross
miss-perceptions and effectively reduce alcohol consumption
[41-43]. Third and fourth steps would be to
evaluate what has been implemented, to provide feedback
in order to improve and extend interventions,
which requires sustained funding, and to analyse gaps
between national policies and what is locally feasible.
More community-based research is needed to face the
problem of hazardous alcohol use, which is persistent
and pervasive.
