More than fifty experts from health and drug administrations from the European Union, Latin America and the Caribbean are participating in a three-day meeting in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, from March 24-27 to improve drug policies and expand community-based interventions.
The meeting is being held within the framework of the European Union (EU)-funded COPOLAD III Latin America-Caribbean-European Union Cooperation Program on Drug Policy, which aims to improve bi-regional cooperation on drug policy. In collaboration with the National Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Program (NADAPP) of the Ministry of Health and the National Drug Council of Trinidad and Tobago, this initiative focuses on strengthening support systems for vulnerable communities affected by drug use.
Participants from 14 countries, Bahamas, Belize, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Peru, Portugal, Spain, Suriname, Uruguay and Trinidad and Tobago, will exchange experiences, challenges and best practices.
