Changing the Narrative

Changing The Narrative is a network of reporters, researchers, academics, and advocates concerned about the way media represents drug use and addiction .

The mission is to help journalists and opinion leaders provide accurate, humane, and scientifically-grounded information in this contested terrain. This comes in the form of expert sources —including people with lived experience of the issues — and up-to-date, fact-checked, and evidence-based information on news and controversies.

The programme includes:

- Web portal

- Social media monitoring and outreach 

- Dissemination at conferences, educational institutions, and other venues

- Changing the Narrative Webcast
