They mean not only to focus on substance testing methods, but also hope to remind people to test their knowledge about drugs and their effects. After all, taking a drug always comes with risks. By raising awareness and sharing knowledge they hope to improve the accessibility of numerous substance oriented harm reduction methods – not only for users, but also for the governmental organizations worldwide who have been searching for a solution to the substance use issues that their citizens face on a daily basis.
