One of the recurring themes at #AddictionsCEE2026 was access to care. As Dr. Casian Stan points out, the challenge is often not the lack of effective treatments, but the fact that they are still unavailable to many of the people who could benefit from them.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, we asked Dr. Casian Stan what frustrates him most as a doctor.

Effective treatments exist. The challenge is making sure they reach the people who need them. Access to evidence-based care should never depend on where someone lives.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, we asked Jakub Popík @ludskotravnik why addiction should be approached from a human rights perspective.

Human rights should not be an afterthought in addiction policy. They should be the starting point for building public policies that protect dignity, health and access to care.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, we asked Dr. Linda Montanari, what Central and Eastern Europe can teach the rest of Europe.

The region brings important experience with stimulants, harm reduction and the connection between addiction and mental health.

The challenge now is to integrate these approaches more effectively.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, Dr. Ladislav Kážmér explained how substance use among young people is changing.

Smoking, alcohol and cannabis use are declining, but e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches are on the rise.

Nicotine is not disappearing. It is changing form, and prevention must keep pace.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, Prof. Dr. Wim van den Brink challenged one of the biggest myths about #addiction: that it is simply a person’s own fault.

Addiction is not a moral failure. It reflects a complex mix of vulnerability, genetics and life circumstances.

Blame does not help.

At #AddictionsCEE2026, we asked Dr. Ladislav Csémy, President of IMHAS, what concerns him most in the field of addiction today.

His answer: the growing impact of social media and digital technologies on young people’s mental health. Young people are suffering – and we still do not have an effective response.

A look back at #AddictionsCEE 2026 in Prague.
More than 20 speakers from across Europe came together to discuss how addiction and mental health policies can become more evidence-based, integrated and effective.
Thank you to everyone who was part of the conversation.

AI may help everyone communicate better. But what happens when everyone starts sounding the same? A Max Planck study found AI-associated vocabulary in English videos and podcasts rose by up to 51% after ChatGPT’s launch. Distinctive voice may become a real competitive advantage.

Dnešek byl jedním slovem jízda! Jedná velká evropská jízda. Dík patří organizátorům #DenEvropy a samozřejmě vám všem, kteří jste dorazili, ať už na Střelecký ostrov v Praze, nebo na kteroukoliv jinou akci v regionech. Myslím, že jsme těch 20 let v Unii řádně oslavili. 😎

A pokud zítra ráno brzy vstáváte, můžete si naladit Snídani s Novou, kde budu od 6:30 hostem. Téma bude jak jinak než 20 let 🇨🇿 v 🇪🇺.

"Po 20 letech v EU jsme křižovatkou uprostřed Evropy. Nabízí se tedy otázka, zda jako Česko nyní na té křižovatce i stojíme. I o tom budeme zítra debatovat," uvedl prezident Hospodářské komory ČR @Hokomora @zdenek_zajicek k zítřejší konferenci #Next20Years.
