Report by Tamyko Ysa Figueras and Adrià Albareda Sanz on the outcomes of the first wave of the ALICE RAP Network Evaluation Survey, conducted between September and Devember 2011, as part of WP20 (Communication and Integration) on project integration.

This report accounts for proceedings and results from a European study on media images on addiction in 6 European countries: Finland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Hungary and the United Kingdom.

The study provides new knowledge on the role of the mass media in construing different images of addiction related problems, and how these roles can be traced to different European traditions when it comes to welfare systems; tasks of the print press and mass media landscapes. Trends of de-politicisation and individualisation were the most striking overall developments over time.

In this study we analyse a number of current major trends in drug and gambling policy in the EU. The focus is on identifying important factors that influence policy decision making and policy implementation.

This report focuses on the development of models concerned with
the transition from risky use to harmful use of substances and gambling. It also and includes the transition probabilities between no use-risky-harmful-cessation stages for tobacco.

Final report presenting and summarising the results of ALICE RAP's work package devoted to the project evaluation, putting forward recommendations for future transdisciplinary research.
