The Importance of an Organizational Infrastructure in a National Substance Prevention System
Original language description
The use of psychoactive substances is recognized not only as a threat to individuals and society but also represents a significant economic burden to the society. We aimed to (i) introduce prevention and a scientific approach to prevention and (ii) provide arguements that prevention is an important part of socialization process but only if done accordingly. Risk and protective factors that are linked with risk behaviors can be found on the individual level (biological and personal characteristics), micro-level environments (family, school, work etc.) and makro-level environments (community, society etc.). Based on more than 40 years of collecting evidence we know that risk behaviors are preventable. We also know that prevntion is cost-effective. Prevention is a field of expertise that has a real impact in the society if done accordingly. Therefore, prevention professionals and prevention scientists started to form professional groups with the common interest: to improve the field of prevention through: (i) development and implementation of evidence-based interventions and policies, (ii) education and training of the prevention workforce, (iii) establishment of functional infrastructures in prevention, and (iv) countinuous support of prevention research and prevention science as a whole.
