The Global State of Harm Reduction 2024 is here! It is the most comprehensive global mapping of harm reduction responses to drug use.
This report includes nine regional chapters authored by experts from each region. This time around we present data on the availability of harm reduction services and address two key issues that require special attention in the region. And for the first time ever, there are thematic chapters focused on harm reduction for Indigenous people, people in prison and youth.
108 countries include harm reduction in national policies. However, criminalisation and punitive responses to drugs remain dominant in most places. These approaches undermine harm reduction efforts and they continue to fuel stigma and discrimination and deter people who use drugs from seeking vital, life-saving services.
