| Résumé: | What are the substance use patterns and risk behaviours among Mediterranean adolescents? This is precisely what the Mediterranean School Survey on Alcohol and Other Drugs (MedSPAD) study aims to investigate, providing valuable insights for policy and prevention efforts. This publication, developed within the framework of the Mediterranean Network on Drugs and Addiction of the Council of Europe International Co-operation Group on Drugs and Addictions (Pompidou Group), focuses on MedSPAD results from Egypt, Lebanon, Morocco and Tunisia. It offers a detailed analysis of commonalities and differences across the southern Mediterranean region, examining early-onset behaviours, perceived substance availability and the prevalence of alcohol, nicotine, cannabis and other drug use. Additionally, as a newly introduced aspect of the survey methodology, it explores gambling, gaming and social media habits. To ensure a meaningful interpretation of the MedSPAD results, this study also provides a comprehensive analysis of the policy framework related to each topic, alongside an examination of the individual and environmental factors associated with substance use and risk behaviours among adolescent students. For the first time, it also assesses the impact of MedSPAD in each participating country. Conducting the study itself represents a significant and innovative effort, requiring the training of local personnel to implement valid, reliable and comparable school-based survey data collection in each country. This is the first time such data have been compiled and analysed in this way, offering unprecedented insight into substance use and addiction among young people on a regional scale. The Council of Europe is the continent's leading human rights organisation. It comprises 46 member states, including all members of the European Union. All Council of Europe member states have signed up to the European Convention on Human Rights, a treaty designed to protect human rights, democracy and the rule of law. The European Court of Human Rights oversees the implementation of the Convention in the member states |
