Lanzamiento de la Red Sudafricana de Personas que Usan Drogas

3 octubre 2017

La Red Internacional de Personas que Usan Drogas (INPUD) ha colaborado con redes sudafricanas para formalizar la nueva Red Sudafricana de Personas que Usan Drogas (SANPUD). Más información, en inglés, está disponible abajo.

In South Africa, people who use drugs are disproportionally affected by HIV, partly because of criminalisation and stigmatisation. During the South Africa Drug Policy Week in Cape Town (July-August 2017), the International Network of People who Use Drugs (INPUD) worked with South African networks to formalise the new South African Network of People who Use Drugs (SANPUD).

Through Bridging the Gaps, alliance partner INPUD has supported networks of people who use drugs for several years to enable them to promote their health and defend their rights.

The information will be used for a new INPUD publication on lessons learnt in network formation and development.
