Pathways to addiction recovery: mechanisms of change in the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands

Recovery models are well established in policy, commissioning and treatment practice in the UK, but have only begun to emerge in policy discourse in the Netherlands and Belgium. The aim of this project is to map pathways to recovery in populations engaging with different mechanisms of behaviour change for recovery - mutual aid, peer-based support, residential and community treatment, specialist treatment) or through their own 'natural recovery' endeavours, at different stages of their addiction careers.
