Asian human rights and drug policy programme

The Asian human rights and drug policy program will be held in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India from April 19 to 29, 2013.

The course aims to situate drug policies globally within a framework of fundamental human rights, and to assess the extent to which country and international drug policies fail to meet human rights standards.

Discussion will focus partly on the identification and understanding of human rights including those that have their basis in international agreements and laws, and in part on evaluation and assessment of the gap between rights and practice in the implementation of drug policies in many countries and regions. The focus of the course will be global, and participants will be drawn from all regions internationally.
