Objective: This webinar will explore how digital initiatives can support public health and social responses to drug use. With a focus on e-prevention and e-harm reduction, the discussion will highlight how these strategies have a potential to break geographical and social barriers to reach individuals in need through online platforms.

Background: E-prevention and e-harm reduction refer to digitally delivered interventions designed to prevent or reduce the negative consequences associated with drug use. These approaches can enhance accessibility and overcome stigma by offering anonymous, user-friendly channels for information and support.
