26 June is World Drug Day, the international day against drug abuse and illicit trafficking. The theme of this year highlights that justice and health need to work hand in hand when it comes to addressing drug problems. Effective responses to the world drug problem require inclusive and accountable institutions of criminal justice, health and social services to work together to provide integrated strategies, in line with the international drug control conventions, human rights obligations and the Sustainable Development Goals.
