Global Commission on Drug Policy

The Global Commission on Drug Policy is an organization composed of former world leaders, experts, and advocates, dedicated to reforming global drug policies. It analyzes how current laws and practices affect health, safety, and human rights, often critiquing the criminalization of drug use. The commission promotes evidence-based strategies that prioritize health and social development over punishment, advocating for policies that reduce harm, improve access to treatment, and respect human rights. Its goal is to influence governments and international organizations to adopt more effective, humane approaches to drug issues worldwide.
