First Wednesdays' latest report has uncovered the issue of how an insufficient collection of data concerning race in the enforcement of illicit cannabis use in Europe can lead to a higher likelihood of prejudiced results for ethnic minorities. @firstweds

@BofC_Europe Thank you for the support!

[Business of Cannabis | Europe @BofC_Europe]

New report from @firstweds has highlighted how a failure to capture data related to race – when policing illicit adult cannabis use across Europe – risks adding to disproportionate outcomes for ethnic minorities that are apparent in countries like the UK.

@VoltefaceHub Thank you for your support @VoltefaceHub! True advocates.

[Volteface @VoltefaceHub]

🚀 Proud to support @firstweds latest social impact report.

A timely, balanced read highlighting the 'blindspot' Europe has around not focusing on this issue and why simply legalising cannabis isn't enough to build a socially just and equitable industry.

📢 New Blog Alert!

As we await @firstweds upcoming social impact report for the UK cannabis industry, dive into the complex debate about drug policing and #SocialJustice.

Will increased police powers solve youth drug use or deepen mistrust?
