Péter Sárosi on the struggle to fund harm reduction in Hungary

6 April 2017

Tell me a bit about the Rights Reporter Foundation and its involvement in harm reduction in Hungary.

The Rights Reporter Foundation (RRF) is a relatively new organization. I founded it two years ago with István Gábor Takács, with whom I have been working in the field of harm reduction and drug policy reform for more than ten years. Before starting it, we both worked for the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union (HCLU).
