This is the first edition of the IDPC Drug Policy Guide aimed at national government policy makers. This publication is a collaborative effort by a number of IDPC members and partners, and brings together global evidence and best practices on the design and implementation of drug policies and programmes at national level.
It is increasingly clear that simple ‘war on drugs’ approaches are not succeeding in eradicating the drug problem and there is a growing number of policy and programme options available to address the harms that are associated with drug markets and drug use. Politicians and officials face the challenge of defining a set of policies and programmes that are appropriate for the situation in their country. This guide is designed to help support policy makers in that process.

The deadline for submitting nominations for the 2010 Red Ribbon Award is February 28th. We strongly encourage you to nominate your colleagues of excellence for the award, as this would present an excellent opportunity to give prominence to drug policy issues at the International AIDS Conference.
