national drug strategies
National drug strategies are comprehensive plans developed by governments to address drug-related issues within a country. They aim to prevent substance abuse, support those affected, reduce supply and availability of illegal drugs, and promote public health and safety. These strategies involve coordination among law enforcement, healthcare, education, and community organizations to create effective policies, reduce harm, and foster healthy communities. They are tailored to a country’s specific needs and prioritize evidence-based approaches to balance prevention, treatment, and enforcement efforts.
