Early 2021, the Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Council contracted the Tasmanian Institute of Law Enforcement Studies to evaluate its consumer projects. It was agreed that one of the first steps in the research was to scope out community expectations and thoughts about what consumer and community engagement should look like in the Tasmanian AOD sector, who should be involved, and the parameters of this involvement. As part of this initial exploration of the broader field and of the aspirations of the local sector, and before engaging in any fieldwork, the research team offered to organise a workshop at the 2021 ATDC conference, and to report on workshop discussions, as a way to provide community insights and advice to our research context and direction. This short report is the first deliverable, as part of this project: it documents and analyses the main themes raised during a preliminary scoping workshop, held at the biennial ATDC conference in 2021.
