Abstract

The first Celebrate Safely Youth Forum was conducted by a collection of agencies on the Central Coast of NSW in 2009. Attended by almost 100 young people from local high schools, this forum engaged young people from the perspective that the majority of them do not consume alcohol at harmful levels. In addition to providing important safety information, the event was designed to illicit and support practical, localised strategies (micro-interventions) for promoting safe celebration. Longer term follow-up revealed that participants took their strategies back to their schools and implemented them in a range of creative ways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
