Description

The Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education (FARE) was established in 2001 as the Alcohol Education and Rehabilitation Foundation by the Commonwealth Government. The Foundation is now an independent, not-for-profit organisation that works with the community to address alcohol and inhalant use for a healthier and safer Australia. FARE's mission is to help Australia change the way it drinks by:

• helping communities to prevent and reduce alcohol-related harms
• building the case for alcohol policy reform
• engaging Australians in conversations about our drinking culture.

Over the last 10 years, more than $115 million has been invested to help 750 organisations and fund over 1400 projects tackling the harms caused by alcohol use. FARE is guided by the World Health Organization's global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol for tackling alcohol-related harms through population-based strategies, problem directed policies, and direct interventions.
