Proyecto Hombre, new member of the Civil Society Forum on Drugs

Proyecto Hombre Association is a new member of the Civil Society Forum on Drugs. The involvement of civil society is one of the cornerstones of European drugs policy as presented in the Commission’s Green Paper of 26 June 2006 on the role of civil society in drugs policy in the European Union.

The Civil Society Forum on Drugs (CSF) is a broad platform for a structured dialogue between the Commission and the European civil society which supports policy formulation and implementation through practical advice.

The CSF, whose constituency changes every 2 or 3 years with the possibility of new candidates, has around 40 members, representing different stakeholders and different policy options. The members of the Forum have drug-related activities as the core focus of their agenda, covering different aspects (e.g. treatment, prevention, social reintegration…). Most of them are established in the form of transnational networks covering a number of eligible countries. Both the geographical balance and the balance between different areas of activities in the drugs field are ensured by the network.
