Abstract
The abuse ofalcohol and otherdrugs (AOD) is evidently a signi¢cant, but often neglected, problem in refugee camps.There are some diierences compared withAODproblems in developed countries (notably fewer aiected women), but also many similarities. Alcohol is the major problem in terms of behaviour and is often manufactured and traded by refugees themselves. Not all AOD users are AOD abusers, but identifying abusers may be worth the eiort if it can be shown to reduce, rather than increase, the healthcare workload. If stai can be engaged, there are several techniques for engaging and managing abusers. The nonspeci¢c eiects of interventions may be considerable.
