dc.description.abstractImplementing effective alcohol control policies remains challenging, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Monitoring and evaluation are crucial for strengthening policy implementation. This study is the first to develop a composite index of alcohol control policy implementation at the subnational level in Thailand. Data were collected from various sources, including key informants responsible for policy implementation and secondary data from relevant organisations. Findings reveal significant variation in the composite index across provinces and an association between the index and alcohol consumption per drinker. This study calls for effective implementation of effective alcohol control policies to reduce alcohol consumption.
