About:
In this presentation, Professor Kylie Lee will discuss ways to engage communities to reflect on their alcohol or drug use. Using examples from remote NT through to urban NSW, Kylie will present a range of resources her team has developed through a program of work that focuses on reducing harms from alcohol and drug use for populations that face systemic inequities, such as Indigenous communities.
Presenter:
Kylie Lee is a Professor in Public Health and leads the Priority Populations Research Stream at the Centre for Alcohol Policy Research at La Trobe University. She holds honorary appointments with the University of Sydney and the National Drug Research Institute. Her highly original research in alcohol and other drug use is led by community or health service requests. Kylie is the lead editor on a clinical textbook requested by Indigenous alcohol and other drug workers nationally and has been invited to assist Inuit and Sri Lankan communities in knowledge translation.
