To mark World Drug Day 2024, join the CND at a special event to commemorate the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking as well as the launch of the 2024 World Drug Report.
A harm reduction resolution was approved at the 67th annual session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs, marking a milestone success for civil society's efforts towards rights-based drug policy reform.
IDPC draws on wide-ranging data from UN, government, academic and civil society sources to conclude that there has been little, incomplete or no progress in achieving the goals set out in the 2019 Ministerial Declaration on Drugs.
The 67th session of CND, including a high-level segment to conduct the 2019 Political Declaration mid-term review, will take place on 14 - 22 March 2024.
This online event will shine a light on key UN developments, and their implications for the ongoing push for drug policies that advance social justice and human rights.
IDPC and ICEERS argue that the right of Indigenous Peoples to grow, use, possess, heal, and travel with their ancestral plants should be enshrined as a part of a right to health free from racial discrimination.
IDPC calls on the UN system and Member States to initiate a process to evaluate the human rights impacts of the global drug control regime, and to propose concrete steps for its reform and modernisation.
