Description

In Ep5 of our #PublicHealthMatters podcast, Dr Eric Carlin shares some personal insights into what lessons can be learnt from the Scottish experience of introducing Minimum Unit Pricing or MUP for alcohol.


Dr Carlin was Director of Scottish Health Action on Alcohol Problems when Scotland became the first country to roll out MUP and today works as a consultant Public Health Expert in Alcohol Policies with the World Health Organisation in Europe. 


The Public Health Matters Podcast speaks to experts about the big public health issues of the day and what lessons we can learn from past challenges.


This is the last episode in this first series, Lessons from Public Health, but stay tuned to stay informed about Public Health Matters as we plan and develop new episodes in the coming months.
