1 January 2008

The term ‘drug policy’ refers to any policy whose aim is to control drug supply and drug demand. It can therefore have an impact on multiple areas, ranging from the treatment of drug dependence and other diseases, such as HIV/AIDS and cancer, to the production and trade in illegal drugs, and the levels of violence, incarceration and poverty worldwide.
