The Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing funds the Alcohol and Other Drugs Conference Funding Program (AODCP) to provide limited financial assistance to:

• support conferences and events in related areas (AODCP Sponsorship Program) [up to a maximum of $10,000 ex GST]; and

This Program is managed by the Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education on the Department’s behalf.

The purpose of the AODCP is to:

• Promote understanding of national issues in prevention, service improvement and early intervention in alcohol and other drugs;
• Promote debate on alcohol and other drug issues;
• Promote the involvement of Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) Sector Workers and/or researchers in the AOD field at alcohol and other drugs themed conferences; and
• Support the delivery of those conferences with an AOD focus.
