On 17 November 2023, policymakers and higher education researchers and professional staff from the higher education sector met in Tangent, the Ideas Workspace in Trinity Business School, Trinity College Dublin. The overall objective was to kick-start an engagement process between policymakers and researchers on the topic of young people and substance use.
The meeting was designed to encourage closer relationships and to build trust and an understanding of existing and future policy needs on young people and substance use. These connections will also help to align new and existing evidence about young people and substance use with Government policy priorities. The event was organised by the Irish Universities Association (IUA) and the Health Research Board (HRB), who funded it.
