10-point plan: Gender-sensitive drug policies for women
10-point plan: Gender-sensitive drug policies for women
The number of women and girls in prison, estimated to be more than 740,000, is increasing: between 2010 and 2020 there was a 17 per cent increase globally. Punitive drug policies are known to be a key driver of rising prison populations and to have a particular and disproportionate impact on women.
