Subject: new book on the HIV and Human Rights Consequences of the Global War on Drugs

Dear Colleagues:

We are pleased to send you a link to the International Harm Reduction Development Program's new book, At What Cost? HIV and Human Rights Consequences of the Global War on Drugs: www.soros.org/health/drugwar. 

 

A decade after governments worldwide pledged to achieve a "drug-free world," there is little evidence that the supply of or demand for illicit drugs has decreased. Instead, aggressive drug control policies have led to widespread human rights violations and fueled epidemics of HIV and AIDS among people who use drugs.

As nations of the world prepare to gather in Vienna this March to assess progress on drug control, this book examines the descent of the global "war on drugs" into a war on people who use drugs. After reading the stories in this volume of drug users beaten and strip-searched in public streets, forced to confess to criminal acts while undergoing painful and unmedicated withdrawal, and incarcerated without trial in prisons with high HIV infection rates, the question is no longer whether a drug-free world is possible it is whether governments will be held accountable for violating human rights in their efforts to achieve it.

The following topics are included in this volume:

      • Police Abuse of Injection Drug Users in Indonesia
      • Arbitrary Detention and Police Abuse of Drug Users in Cambodia
      • Forced Drug Testing in China
      • Drug Control Policies and HIV Prevention and Care Among Injection Drug Users in Imphal, India
      • Effects of United Nations and Russian Influence on Drug Policy in Central Asia
      • The Impacts of the Drug War in Latin America and the Caribbean
      • Civil Society Reflections on 10 Years of Drug Control in Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam
      • Twin Epidemics–Drug Use and HIV/AIDS in Pakistan

If you'd like to receive a hard copy of At What Cost? HIV and Human Rights Consequences of the Global War on Drugs, please contact IHRD's Elizabeth Keeney at ekeeney@sorosny.org. We hope that you will find the book useful in your work.

Sincerely,
Roxanne
