Prevención del Consumo de Sustancias Basada en la Evidencia y la Adaptación Cultural

This presentation gives a brief summary of the meaning of evidence-based prevention, what interventions consist of, and the scope they may have. The webinar includes a review of the learnings and outcomes that both prevention practice and research have left, as well as the barriers that are imposed for the implementation of these interventions.
