International Alcohol Control Study

The International Alcohol Control Study (IAC) is a research project that compares alcohol consumption patterns, policies, and related behaviors across different countries. It aims to understand how various laws, social norms, and market factors influence drinking habits globally. By collecting standardized data, the study helps policymakers develop effective strategies to reduce alcohol-related harm while promoting responsible drinking. It provides insights into the effectiveness of measures like pricing, advertising restrictions, and availability controls, supporting evidence-based decisions to improve public health outcomes on an international scale.
