USA. What to expect when your city is expecting a supervised injection site: Lessons from around the globe | Perspective
Philadelphia, where another 1,100 people died of an overdose in 2018, is slowly navigating toward opening a supervised injection site, a move that has prompted a debate among harm reduction advocates and law-and-order types about the best way to address the overdose crisis. Safehouse, a nonprofit, has been incorporated with the sole purpose of opening a site to save lives. After incorporating, the U.S. attorney sued Safehouse, arguing that the site is illegal, in an attempt to prevent them from opening. The suit is currently in court, but Safehouse has made progress. In March they announced a potential location. (The Philadelphia Inquirer, USA, 29.06.2019)
Drug Consumption Rooms (DCRs): final conference of the Solidify project (5-6 December 2019, Lisbon (Portugal)
Co-hosted by Efus, the city of Lisbon, and the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA)
Supervised Drug Consumption Rooms (DCRs) have proved to be a safe way to prevent harm related to drug use and insecurity linked to consumption in public spaces and trafficking. However, the establishment of a DCR can give rise to concerns among local residents to which local authorities must respond through dialogue and consensus-building measures. Beyond there is also the difficulty of political resistance as DCRs are still far from being widely accepted or even properly understood by some European political decision-makers.

Australien. Photo Essay: Inside Australia’s Safe Consumption Sites
While officials in the US—and the UK where I live—debate the introduction of safe consumption spaces (SCS), it’s important to remember that about 120 of these sites already operate legally in about 12 countries around the world. Many have existed for years. They save lives, reduce the spread of disease, reduce public costs and bring many other benefits.
One place where SCS operate is Australia. In 2018 I visited the country and had the opportunity to take a series of photographs at the long-running SCS in Sydney and the newly opened site in Melbourne. Part of the collection was recently exhibited at the Harm Reduction International conference in Portugal. (Filter, USA, 29.05.2019)

USA. Data show the first supervised injection site in the U.S., although illegal, prevented overdose deaths
American advocates calling for supervised injection sites as a life-saving measure to prevent overdose deaths have been forced to rely on data from Canada and elsewhere to show that the sites are a valid public health intervention – until now.
New data, released Monday at a major international harm reduction conference in Porto, Portugal, provide the first look at a supervised injection site (SIS) situated on American soil. The research involves data collected from the U.S. site – a secret, illegal one as such sites are not permitted under U.S. law. (Globe and Mail, Kanada, 29.04.2019)
Strassbourg. European symposium and study visit on drug consumption rooms in Strasbourg
Some 250 participants took part in a European symposium on “Low Risk Drug Consumption Rooms in Europe – Assessment and Prospects” co-organised by Efus, the City of Strasbourg, the association Ithaque and the MILDECA, and held at the European Parliament on 3-4 April. The meeting brought together elected officials, representatives from international and national institutions, municipal health and security practitioners, doctors and nurses, social workers, police officers and researchers from across Europe and beyond. They discussed the development of local harm reduction policies and the role of supervised Drug Consumption Rooms (DCRs) in protecting fundamental rights and fostering public health, security and social cohesion at local level.
