Lancement du rapport de l'UNU: Qu'arrivera-t-il après la guerre contre les drogues?

Le 3 novembre 2015, le Bureau d'UNU à l'Organisation des Nations Unies a lancé le nouveau rapport politique du Drug Policy Project, intitulé « Qu’arrivera-t-il après la guerre contre les drogues ? » et examinant la Session spéciale de l’Assemblée générale de l’ONU sur la drogue à venir en avril 2016 (UNGASS 2016).

The report is based on a year-long series of consultations, “Identifying Common Ground for UNGASS 2016″, which has involved 50 Member States, 16 UN entities, and 55 civil society organisations. The report analyses major political and policy trends leading up to UNGASS 2016; cautions that the push for ‘flexibility’ in implementation of the drug control regime risks leading to policy fragmentation unless it is embedded in a larger, principle-based discussion; and offers six operational recommendations for strengthening the outcome of UNGASS 2016.

The report argues that states should use the period until 2019, when a new UN Plan of Action is expected, to hold inclusive discussions in New York to work towards Global Drug Policy Goals. This approach could be modeled after the process that led to the creation and recent adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals, and be framed as an Open Working Group on Drug Policy, open to all states and to civil society, and guided by a Scientific Advisory Committee. Creating shared goals has proven to be an effective way for states to define the key objectives of a regime, direct resources, and work towards a shared vision on a global issue.
