Harm Reduction International’s Public Health Programme promotes harm reduction as an evidence-based public health approach to drug use. Harm reduction approaches are designed to improve health outcomes through the prevention or reduction of harms related to the use of licit and illicit psychoactive substances.
Harm Reduction International advocates for increased international commitment to the funding and implementation of harm reduction services, and for a supportive legal and policy environment within which these can operate most effectively. We pursue these objectives through an integrated programme of high quality research, documentation, networking and advocacy, often in collaboration with harm reduction networks and wider civil society.
