VIU’s Dr. Chris Gill’s research is sparking discussions across the seas. Amazing to see how far research ideas travel
A range of concerns raised by service providers for limiting engagement by consumer participation in AOD @Annie_Madden_ #SANDAS2019. Uncomfortable to hear, but so true. We often underestimate our clients' capacity. Role of the Pygmalion/Nocebo Effect?

To effectively engage peer workers it's important for services to be clear on WHY. Too often it's tokenism. Also need to ensure there is tangible outcome for consumers @Annie_Madden_ #SANDAS2019. I feel when implementing AOD consumer advisory group @PeninsulaHealth we missed this
The challenges for peer workers include those experienced by all people who use #drugs including: criminalization leading to shame from the internalisation of stigma @Annie_Madden_ #SANDAS2019
We’re so grateful to be hearing from the incredible @Annie_Madden_ Challenging us to think more deeply about the world of “lived experience” #SANDAS2019

Is the term "lived experience" a sanitised euphemism to describe people who use #drugs? Who does it include? Families? How recent does experience have to be? Important questions raised by @Annie_Madden_ #SANDAS2019
Final session I can attend at #SANDAS2019 before sadly flying back to Perth is @Annie_Madden_ on the important value that peer workers add to the AOD workforce and #drugpolicy development.
A great overview of some of the myths about #pilltesting that have been perpetuating in Australia by @monicabarratt #SANDAS2019. Far more nuanced than the black and white debate that has been occurring on Twitter and in Australian mainstream #media. NB not issues overseas...

SSAC team member @Kate_Seear draws on her new book during her presentation at the #SANDAS2019 symposium.
If there was a #safesupply of #MDMA there would be no need for #pilltesting. While this solution might not be pragmatic at the moment, @monicabarratt courageously provides this as the best response #SANDAS2019
.@monicabarratt presents a range of international #pilltesting services including @WeAreTheLoopUK & @EC_es at #SANDAS2019

While people who use #drugs might not be able to complain to @ACCCProdSafety about quality of product, #pilltesting is likely to have an impact on making people selling drugs more accountable @monicabarratt #SANDAS2019
While there are a number of defining features of #pilltesting, @monicabarratt notes that there are also a number of variables features that exist on continuums. It is not as dichotoumous as sometimes being presented on Twitter #SANDAS2019

The history of drug checking can be traced back to the 60s, the early days of prohibition! Learning from the wonderful work of @monicabarratt at #SANDAS2019

Introduction to talk about #pilltesting in Australia by @monicabarratt points out the issue of unregulated supply, which reminds me of this satirical video on "healthy #ecstacy" #SANDAS2019 #ADS1252 https://t.co/Yh4oQFNRkb
Next up at #SANDAS2019 is friend and colleague @monicabarratt from @WeAreTheLoopAU to discuss the nuanced issue of #pilltesting in Australia. @AODpeak says likely to be a statement endorsing #pilltesting that does not prescribe methodology.

Current #auspol Bill protecting religious freedom elevates this freedom above all other laws so could provide a pathway to legal use of entheogens says @Kate_Seear #SANDAS2019. What do you think @EGAPolicy?
Does the #auspol bill to #drug test #welfare recipients infringe on people's #HumanRights to cognitive liberty? Is this even a thing @Kate_Seear? #SANDAS2019
The Federal govt’s 2018 bill for the drug testing of welfare recipients potentially breached a number of human rights. Hearing from the indomitable @Kate_Seear at #SANDAS2019

.@Kate_Seear talking about the 2018 bill to test #welfare recipients at #SANDAS2019. Statement of #HumanRights infringed contained too many infringements for me to tweet!
