UN. Into the unknown - A clear breakthrough, but an uncertain future for drug policy at the Commission on Narcotic Drugs
At the 67th session of the UN’s Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), member states met to take stock of progress made in implementing the 2019 Ministerial Declaration on drug policy commitments and to adopt a number of resolutions on specific aspects of drug policy. Despite the adoption of a political declaration by consensus, states did not maintain consensus-based decision-making throughout the meeting, heralding long overdue progress towards more humane and effective drug policies, particularly in the area of harm reduction. Despite this historic step forward, the future direction of the international drug policy debate remains uncertain. (GITOC – Global Initiative against Transnational Organzed Crime, Genf, 09.04.2024)
