International Overdose Awareness Day aims to raise awareness of overdose and reduce the stigma of a drug-related death.
It is also an opportunity to stimulate discussion about evidence-based overdose prevention and drug policy.
International Overdose Awareness Day acknowledges the grief felt by families and friends remembering those who have died or suffered a permanent injury due to a drug overdose.
Join us at our upcoming conference on drug-related deaths on the 29th of August in Glasgow, which will mark International Overdose Awareness Day 2019.
