  Global overview of short-term alcohol policies, with Basma Al-Ansari 05.06.2026 30dk

  Alcohol consumption is a major contributor to preventable illness, injury, and mortality worldwide. While long-term regulatory approaches such as taxation and availability controls are widely studied, governments also frequently introduce short-term alcohol policies in response to acute events, including public health emergencies, elections, and large-scale gatherings. These temporary measures are often implemented rapidly, with varying objectives and limited evaluation of their outcomes. Questions remain about their effectiveness, unintended consequences, and how lessons can be shared across jurisdictions. In this episode, we explore how short-term alcohol policies are used globally and what is needed to assess their impact more systematically.

  Suicide prevention in Bangladesh, with Dr SM Yasir Arafat 10.04.2026 30dk

  Suicide remains an under-prioritised public health issue in Bangladesh, shaped by stigma, criminalisation, and gaps in mental health care. While recent laws and policies signal progress, the absence of a national suicide prevention programme and a reliable suicide database continues to hinder effective action. In this episode, we explore the current state of suicide prevention in Bangladesh, examine policy initiatives and challenges, and discuss why a coordinated, public health–focused approach is urgently needed to save lives.
