About ESSD Conference
The European Society for Social Drug Research (ESSD) was founded in 1990 to promote social science approaches to drugs research, with special reference to the situation in Europe (http://www.essd-research.eu/). The society holds an annual conference providing scope for collaboration and cooperation among researchers working in the drugs field. The 2026 conference will be held in Vilnius in the traditional in-person conference format. We invite drug researchers to submit their abstracts and join us for an enriching and engaging event.
