Together with the International Alliance for Responsible Drinking (IARD) and the World Brewing Alliance, the World Spirits Alliance on behalf of its members, have sent a letter to the Permanent Representatives to the UN in New York and Geneva, to reiterate our joint commitment to achieving the UN’s 2030 goals on tackling the harmful use of alcohol, in the lead up to the UN High-Level Meeting in September 2025 as part of the UN’s comprehensive strategy to tackle NCDs.
The industry has made significant commitments and taken concrete steps to help tackle harmful consumption and underage drinking, by eliminating the marketing and sale of alcohol to minors through the following ways:
Aligning with global standards on eCommerce sales to prevent delivery of alcohol to minors and intoxicated individuals, with resources to support delivery agents.
Training and equipping retailers and hospitality staff to be empowered to sell, serve, and deliver responsibly, and to deny transactions as necessary.
Partnering with leading online platforms to promote standards for online advertising and influencer promotions, to develop robust safeguards against minors’ access.
The UN High-Level Meeting will be a vital opportunity to advance the UN’s 2030 goals on reducing harmful alcohol use and we are ready to answer the call again in 2025, and be included in helping to deliver the final push.
