Join us for a debrief session on the 68th session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) to discuss progress, gridlocks and potential ways forward for the UN drug control regime.
IDPC, HRI, and Youth RISE highlight how drug policies exacerbate poverty through exclusion from housing, social benefits, education, and employment, reinforcing stigma and discrimination.
Services have closed without warning, leaving people without access to sterile syringes and opioid agonist treatment, critical to stem HIV incidence and mortality.
HRW denounces human rights violations, including in relation to drug policy ranging from punitive laws to extrajudicial executions, and demands truth and justice.
The Forum addressed transformative strategies for global drug policies, emphasizing human-centered approaches, harm reduction, and sustainable development.
The webinar will discuss the key issues that are likely to structure the debates, including in relation to tabled resolutions, and present how IDPC member organisations have used this forum for their advocacy.
