The 2025 National Drug Research Institute (NDRI) research symposium is planned to include presentations and panel sessions on the latest research on alcohol and other drug harm, policy, practice, prevention and trends as well as providing delegates direct access to international keynote speakers and established world leaders in alcohol and other drug research.

It will be of interest to anyone keen to hear about the latest alcohol and other drug research, particularly:

• Clinicians, educators and public health practitioners, professional and advocates
• Public health policy and government decision makers
• People working in the community sector
• People with lived experience
• Communities and people affected by drug use and associated harms, and

• Researchers, academics and research groups across Australia.

The 2025 NDRI symposium is a hybrid event, with face-to-face attendance encouraged and virtual attendance available for interstate delegates.
