The Nadelmann Report

The Nadelmann Report, published in the 1990s by the Drug Policy Foundation, focuses on drug policy reform in the United States. It emphasizes the need for a shift from punitive measures to a public health approach, advocating for decriminalization and regulation of drugs. The report discusses the failures of the "War on Drugs," highlighting issues like mass incarceration and racial disparities. It calls for evidence-based policies that prioritize harm reduction, education, and treatment rather than criminalization, aiming for a more effective and equitable way to address drug use and its societal impacts.
