The Conference theme - The Next Generation - will be reflected throughout the conference programme and will embody:

  • Young People – who are both directly and indirectly affected by drug use around the world and must be engaged in the global harm reduction and drug policy dialogue.
  • New Populations – including regions such as Africa and Latin America, which have often been overlooked by harm reduction advocates and policies.
  • New Interventions – including the need to address non-injecting substance use, and to move beyond a focus on opiates and develop effective responses for stimulant users and emerging drugs and trends.
  • New Challenges – including the need to improve global resourcing for harm reduction, and to improve quality as well as coverage around the world
