FASD Hub Webinar: Mandatory Alcohol Labelling – A long fought battle. Now what’s next?
Join our expert panel as we celebrate the successful collaboration of researchers, advocates, community and government in the creation of mandatory alcohol labelling laws. We examine the underpinning evidence-base, as well as processes undertaken for consultation and implementation. We explore the impact of this and other allied policies in reducing alcohol harms in communities, and hear from a mother with lived experience of raising a child with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Finally, we’ll take a look at what’s next for reducing the risk of prenatal alcohol exposure and FASD across Australia .
