Introducing Overdoselifesavers.org
[A picture containing clipart Description automatically generated] <br> <br>Introducing Overdoselifesavers.org <br> <br>A new website presenting personal experiences of opioid overdose and the use <br>of take-home naloxone to save lives <br> <br>Dear colleagues, <br> <br>We are very pleased to announce the launch of <br>Overdoselifesavers.org, Australia's first <br>dedicated website presenting carefully researched personal stories of opioid <br>overdose and the use of take-home naloxone to save lives. <br> <br>Developed from an ARC-funded <br>project, the site has two key <br>aims. First, it aims to support people affected by opioid overdose and <br>thinking about using take-home naloxone. Second, it aims to inform the public <br>about overdose and what can be done about it. Overall, it seeks to look beyond <br>the statistics and recognise that behind each death from overdose was a human <br>life that had its own story and remains connected to the lives and stories of <br>others. <br> <br>They website sheds light on the stories of people affected by overdose, using <br>original audio, re-enacted video and text clips to present people's <br>experiences in their words. Importantly, <br>Overdoselifesavers.org aims to fill in the <br>many gaps in public discussion of overdose, to counter stigmatising <br>misconceptions, and to promote understanding and more effective community <br>responses. <br> <br>We'd like to take this opportunity to invite you to visit <br>Overdoselifesavers.org and consider <br>completing our brief (three minute) feedback survey about your experiences. <br> <br>If you have any questions about the website or the research underpinning it, <br>please feel free to contact me. <br> <br>Best wishes, <br>Dr Adrian Farrugia on behalf of the research team: <br>Professor Suzanne Fraser (Australian Research Centre in Sex Health and <br>Society, La Trobe University/Centre for Social Research in Health, University <br>of New South Wales) <br>Dr Robyn Dwyer (Centre for Alcohol Policy Research, La Trobe <br>University/National Drug Research Institute, Curtin University) <br>Professor Paul Dietze (Burnet Institute) <br>Professor Joanne Neale (King's College, London/Centre for Social Research in <br>Health, University of New South Wales) <br>Professor John Strang (King's College, London) <br> <br> <br>Dr Adrian Farrugia <br> <br>Research Fellow <br> <br>Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society <br> <br>College of Science, Health and Engineering | La Trobe University | Bundoora <br>3086 <br> <br>T: +61 3 9479 5102 | E: a.farrugia@latrobe.edu.au | W: <br>www.latrobe.edu.au <br> <br> <br>Adjunct Research Fellow <br>National Drug Research Institute <br>Faculty Health Sciences | Curtin University <br>I acknowledge that I live and work on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the <br>Kulin nations and that sovereignty was never ceded.
