abstract="This paper is about a community action for the implementation of a WHO Collaborative Project on the reduction of hazardous drinking in Primary Health Care Settings called &quot;Drink-less&quot;. The article stresses the need to shift the attention from alcoholic treatment towards the reduction of alcohol consumption. After the development of a valid screening instrument and counselling material (&quot;Drink-less&quot; Package), the strategies to involve General Practitioners in early intervention are studied. A Pilot Project was implemented in the City of Udine by the Municipality through its Healthy City Project Office. &quot;Healthy City&quot; is a WHO project that stimulates Local Administrations to implement health promotion and Community actions through an intersector work. Besides the undoubted validity of the overall &quot;Drink-less Project&quot;, the study emphasizes the importance of GPs in secondary prevention of hazardous drinking and the necessity to re-orient programmed action in Public Health and health promotion. &quot;Healthy City WHO Project&quot; can be an important tool for the implementation of Community actions in Public Health.<p /><p>Language: it</p>",
