Reunión intersesional de la CND - Sesiones temáticas sobre la puesta en marcha de todos los acuerdos internacionales en materia de políticas de drogas

8 julio 2022

Las sesiones temáticas de otoño de 2022 de la CND se centrarán en las respuestas no conformes con las tres convenciones internacionales de control de drogas y las obligaciones en materia de derechos humanos. Más información, en inglés, está disponible abajo.

As per the workplan agreed upon on 24th June 2019, thematic discussions will take place every autumn during the period between 2019-22, addressing the challenges identified by the taking stock paragraph of the 2019 Ministerial Declaration.

Accordingly, on 21-22 September, the Commission on Narcotic Drugs will meet to discuss the following three elements of the 2019 Ministerial Declaration’s “Taking Stock” paragraph:

that responses not in conformity with the three international drug control conventions and not in conformity with applicable international human rights obligations pose a challenge to the implementation of joint commitments based on the principle of common and shared responsibility

Day 1 (21 September) will likely focus on the drug control conventions, day 2 (22 September) will likely focus on human rights obligations.
