In 2013 the Monsters campaign received acknowledgements from United Nations in New York and from the European Parliament by winning the Grand Prix due to it's achievements in creating global awareness on this important topic.
Finland has a long history of family problems caused by parental alcohol consumption. It is a very controversial and current topic in Finland with a regular stream of cases being reported in the media. Tragic cases bring home the importance of the child's point of view. Based on a recent study, one in four children in Finland experiences some harm or emotional disturbance during their childhood caused by parental alcohol abuse. Finnish teenagers aged 12-18 years shows that children think that their parents ought not to drink at home and that they are much nicer without alcohol.
