A Statement from Harm Reduction Networks to the High Level Segment of the 52nd session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs Vienna, 11—12 March 2009

The ‘Network of Networks’ – an informal coalition of harm reduction networks from around the world – came together to create this brochure for the High-Level Segment of the 52nd Session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), where country delegations from around the world came together to review the last decade of international drug control, and plan for the next ten years.

Harm Reduction International and partners question why CND continuously fails to support and endorse harm reduction when this approach is approved and promoted by the UN General Assembly, UNAIDS, UNODC, the World Health Organization and others.
