Today @UNODC asked us to #ShareFactsOnDrugs
So we decided to highlight some facts they always ignore
🚔Criminalisation drives stigma
⚫️Stigma = death
❤️Harm reduction saves lives
A real commitment to #SaveLives is a commitment to share *all the facts*

each life lost was a human person in the world. one's humanity isnt defined by a relation to others. also WE ALL SAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN IN MARCH AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE DIDNT HAVE TO DIE

Draconian laws have consistently been counterproductive in addressing the growing drug challenges among young people. We therefore call for #Youthcentered drug policy that enable improved; rights, health, capacity & development of young people.
