Alliance for Public Health (Alliance) is delighted to inform that it has joined the International Drug Policy Consortium (IDPC) and became IDPC’s 1st member in Ukraine. Being responsible for the biggest harm reduction program in Europe and Central Asia covering 212,000 people who use drugs and 8,600 patients of opioid substitution treatment (OST) in Ukraine, Alliance is one of the key drug policy players/stakeholders from civil society. In order to abolish the repressive legal restrictions for Harm Reduction and OST programs, Alliance initiated and implemented numerous progressive changes in the national drug laws. Alliance has a long term history of productive cooperation with IDPC on the global drug policy reform.
