A Big Thank You to the ISSUP National Chapters

Shared by James Harvey (ISSUP staff) - 18 December 2024
In 2024, we proudly welcomed five new National Chapters: Afghanistan, El Salvador, Guatemala, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. This year also provided more opportunities for in-person meetings, particularly at the regional level. These gatherings served as valuable platforms for facilitating region-specific discussions on drug demand reduction.
