The 2014 Work programme continues to implement the commitments set out in the EMCDDA’s 2013–15 strategy and work programme. It builds on the achievements made in 2013 where measures were put in place to ensure that the EMCDDA’s approach remains appropriate to the challenge of reporting on an evolving drug situation within the context of changing customer needs and expectations.
