L’objectif
This paper examines ‘drug user representation’ in key UN drug policy processes over three decades.
Constatations/points à retenir
In addition to the practices of resistance being undertaken by ‘drug user representatives’, we suggest there is a need to improve how ‘drug user representation’ is being made possible and done in the sites of UN drug policy deliberation and, that these sites should be opened for questioning. This we argue will not only have a positive impact on political legitimacy for ‘drug user representation’, but on the health and human rights of people who use/have used drugs.
La conception ou méthodologie de recherche
Processes with positive evidence of ‘drug user representation’ (n = 9) were critically interrogated across three co-constitutive domains of the subjects, objects and forms of ‘drug user representation’.
