Through this result, COPOLAD III is committed to reducing the negative impact on sustainable development in Latin America and the Caribbean of public policies based exclusively on the interdiction of drugs, arrest and prosecution of the players in the illicit market. The proposed actions aim to support public policies that offer comprehensive solutions, which combine solid intelligence work with citizen security and development measures, decent employment, social protection, legality and trust in institutions, prioritising the interests of the most vulnerable groups and women.<\/p>\n

It is\u00a0proposed to integrate the activities with actions that promote the exchange of experiences, good practices on reforms, regulations and interventions in supply control with a human rights approach,<\/strong>as well as exchanges and technical assistance to promote the review of criminal law, proportionality of the law for crime and drug trafficking and awareness of the impact of the drug production and trafficking industry on the environment.<\/p>\n
