First Annual Conference of the International Society for the Study of Drug Policy
Information: The conference is being supported by the Nordic Council for Alcohol and Drug Research (NAD) with the Norwegian Institute for Alcohol and Drug Research (SIRUS) as local host. Participants are invited from a variety of disciplines and institutional backgrounds: universities, national and international agencies active in drug policy and independent research institutions. Practioners who consider themselves consumers rather than producers of policy-relevant research will be particularly welcome. Four themes will be given particular emphasis: developing harm indexes for policy decision; estimating government expenditure on drug policy; modelling the effects of specific policies and programmes; and assessing the impact of harm reduction and substitution treatment initiatives.
