Thoughts on Drugs.

International Drug Users' Remembrance Day 2021

7/14/2021

0 Comments

 
July 21st is International Drug Users' Remembrance Day, where we take time to remember the people whose lives were unjustly cut short due to the criminalisation and stigmatisation of people who use drugs. To us, they were #MoreThan a casualty; they were our family, friends, peers and loved ones.

To honour their memory on this day, join INPUD, UNAIDS and GNP+ for a webinar discussing the interventions necessary to eliminate stigma and discrimination faced by people who use drugs, and how this work is being conducted through the Global Partnership for Action to Eliminate All Forms of HIV+ Related Stigma and Discrimination. The panel will include peer speakers and representatives from UN agencies.

The webinar will be held on July 21st at 16:00 CEST (10:00 EST) and will be in English, with live translation available in French, Russian and Spanish.
