November 2024 DRUG-RELATED VIOLENCE Call to action on drug-related violence The first European Conference on Drug-Related Violence, organised this month in Brussels by the EUDA and the European Commission, culminated in a powerful Call to action, delivered by EUDA Executive Director Alexis Goosdeel. The text draws on the issues raised at the event to encourage and support efforts to enhance safety and security across all sectors of society, with measures to anticipate, alert, respond and learn from the growing complexities of drug-related violence. At the conference, leading experts engaged in dynamic discussions, addressing the multifaceted challenges of drug-related violence. The issues explored ranged from public safety and health implications, to responses and innovative strategies and interventions. The focus of the event was how to break the cycle of drug-related violence and build a better future.  Call to action >> | Event >> | Video >> | Closing session >>  LABORATORIES New lab network to strengthen EU preparedness on drugs   On 12 November, we convened the inaugural meeting of our newly established network of forensic and toxicological laboratories, a key initiative outlined in our new mandate (Article 15). This network will play a critical role in supporting EU preparedness on drugs. The primary purpose of the meeting was to review initial progress in setting up the network and to outline its operational framework. It also provided a platform for experts from across Europe to connect, exchange views and best practice, and explore ongoing challenges in the drugs field. The meeting was divided into two sessions: 'Establishing the network' and 'Multidisciplinary perspectives and challenges'. Read more >> DRUG-RELATED INFECTIOUS DISEASES New tool for monitoring drug-related infectious diseases  This month, we published a 'Drug-related infectious diseases (DRID) technical protocol – surveys on HIV and viral hepatitis in people who inject drugs'. The protocol outlines the key steps to be taken for determining whether and how to set up a survey to monitor DRID, assess related risk factors and evaluate preventive interventions among people who inject drugs. Implementing surveys of this kind enhances the ability to monitor progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals and related elimination targets. These surveys also collect valuable information on drug use patterns and access to harm reduction services among this key population. The protocol is accompanied by 'Best practice examples of surveys for monitoring drug-related infectious diseases in the EU/EEA'. This supplement includes real-world examples of the various survey steps.  Read more >>  ABOUT US Acting today, anticipating tomorrow Looking for a brief overview of our work?

Πρόκειται για σημεία όπου ο δρόμος συναντά χειμάρρους χωρίς την ύπαρξη γέφυρας, με τη διέλευση να βασίζεται σε τσιμεντένια οδοστρώματα, μια λύση πρόχειρη και συχνά επικίνδυνη. Συνεχίστε την ανάγνωση
